Started getting into these a few years ago. Looking for people to network with, tech help, swap or sell parts. I'm into any year ct70's and mainly just the '68-'78 z50's. It seems like 90% of the people I meet say they had a z50 as a kid, then they tell the stories of what they did to them and I'm surprised any are still around to this day.

I have 5 CT 70s and 4 CT 90s. Haven't had chance to start working on /modifying them. I am hoping to make his and hers to match my 69 VW doublecab pickup. I am a hoarder of CTs and ATCs. Lots of parts.

shortline, all those are customers bikes?

the 71z50 has some year specific parts on it, bigger fenders, foot brake, oval badge tank, no battery, tall tail light bracket. Lots of them out there, but used parts are just that, well used.

What year ct 70's do you have VWrick?

I have an SL70 and an XL70 scattered around the garage right now.

I think the XL will become a rideable toy again but the SL does not have enough parts to be a cost effective rebuild.
