My Aussie friend Ron who turns 78 in july would like to know if he is the oldest active Z1300 rider in the world...

I'd say he's at least in the top 3 :)

Well done Ron !

Keep it coming and stay on 2 wheels, you are an example to us all !

I had a Z1300 once that made sparks just like yours is in the photo !
Turned out to be a loose connection at the startor solenoid !!!!!

You're an inspiration Ron. Twelve years ahead of me.

I am 57, and the guy who sold me my Z13 was a very fit 71 years old: he was only selling it as he thought the big Zed was getting a bit too heavy to move about: but Ron would be the oldest Z13 owner Ive heard of - long may he continue :)

Not me. I won two trophies back in 1998 as the youngest driver. Ron is 31 years ahead of me.

And guys, don't call sporty, junior or Youngster now !

cheers
