My son's bike, and he had her for just over a year now.
It was Dorsland's bike, and he baught it and immediately fitted crashbars, new cush rubbers (the good blue ones) and a touring screen.
He toured and commuted about 10k km with the bike.
Serviced her 3 x with Lique molly oil, new filter etc.
Reason for sale: he is short and the Z is crazy tall for him.
He comes like me from a road bike background and wanted to try the gravel/adv thing but it's not what he wants.
Both of us are looking into getting smaller lighter bikes and in his case ro commute (4km round trip)
Bike is standard and he had no issues whatsoever.
Reason for delay on sale: license offices in NW. Bike is on his name with reg paper etc but no license disc issue yet in a year because of covid and who knows what.
So once the disc gets sorted (he is using some agency to help now) it will be bumped into an official sale thread.
For now here is some pictures taken 2 or 3 days ago.
Bike is now parked and he commutes with my NC.
As you can see it's a clean example, a rather beautiful bike.

Price will be R65k which is very good for the last models of Z's
