Perfect well let’s give it a go. Sent you a message. Thanks Lee

Ok just back from a trip. See pics below. Two are ok and two damaged. One has a slight bend the other is worse and has some damage from manhandling it out.

Hi! Ok this could be the way forward. But I have at least one which is bent out of shape as they were seized solid. Let me inspect closer when I’m back at the weekend and see how many I need to replace before reseating Thanks for this!

Looong shot but don’t suppose you have any more of these?

Thanks
Lee

Managed to get a day on carbs today, did some plating and cleaning and looming nae bad! Bought a carb rebuild kit which is total garbage of eBay.. Apart from the gaskets all useless, so will still need to order a few bits. But happy with the progress.

Hi Guys Thanks for the advise, I’m running an offset from sprocket with 18 teeth just to give me some more clearance. So I’m going to go for a standard ZRX rear which I have in good order, giving me around 2.5 and take it from there. Easy to go smaller later and remove a link if needed etc. Will kee...

Hi all Been trawling through lots of threads on chain ratios etc and wanted to get some input before ordering parts.. Z650 with z750 Engine - Final Drive stock is 2.63 Running a 17” rear wheel and 530 Chain Thinking to stop the ratio to about 2.5 to adjust for the 17” wheel Would this make sense or ...

Well dug out the set of 24s and they are looking pretty rough! Will get on them this weekend.. see how they turn out. On another note I’ve been figuring out what I need to do with the back sprocket and looks like I need to come in 5mm so that’s sorted. But need to decide on a ratio to use! So sugges...

Vm24ss. Easy to tune ane more than enough air capacity for even a modded motor. Z650 Vm24 dia = area 452mm sq x 4 = 1808mm sq div by 652cc = 2.77mm sq per cc. Z900 Vm26 dia = area 531mm sq x 4 = 2124mm sq div by 902cc = 2.35mm sq per cc. Z1000 Vm26 dia = area 531mm sq x 4 = 2124mm sq div by 1015 = ...

Need to think about carbs soon. I’ve a choice of CVs from a GPz750 or a set of 650 24s… opinions welcome on what to use

My mate did a grand job for me on the pipes. Looking totally presentable which was all I need on this build. Got my front sprocket on too with the 5/8” offset which should just clear the frame. Now a bit of measuring and a few mil in at the back and we’re good.

Great! That’s a good spot at that price will do me! Thanks

Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has a set of exhaust collars for a z650 spare? I only seem to have short ones and need the longer ones. I think 92027-264 is the right part number. Need 25-30 mm of length for my V&H pipe

Thanks

That’s interesting feedback Warren, I do t actually realize you got such a thing. Just had a look and seems you can get as cheap as 50 quid! When having a browse it jogged my memory that I may have a paranha one kinking about somewhere… I’ll check a few more boxes :) Failing that the Chinese one cou...

Hi all,

As per my z650 revisited project I’m working on, Ive realized I don’t have an ignition, so wondering if anyone has a used Dyna s they would like to sell?
I’m Breaking my must build out of stock rule but I really don’t want to use points

Thanks
Lee
