I am looking at buying a z1000a1 standard swinging arm, does anyone know if the later z1000 a3/b3 swinging arm is the same as the a1/a2 ones?

Thanks zed,just been in touch with ddz900 he's sending me some switchgear,thanks again for kind offer.

Thanks Duane pm sent.
Also thanks zedrider for reply,hopefully will get all the bitsoff ddz900.

That's one of the bits I need, I also need the internal switch as mine is missing.

Has anybody got an old unwanted left side handle bar switch gear,i only need the indicator switch and toggle thingy from it as i have decided to fit indicators to my z1000a1 and theres no switch or toggle on my switchgear. Thanks.

Had the same problem myself once,i took the nipple out and ground a drill tip to the same angle as the tip of the nipple,then just carefully drilled the nipple hole a touch,replaced nipple and all was fine. Check theres no muck in the nipple seat first,also may be worth trying a new bleed nipple too...

Good luck with the rebuild zman,looks a nice bike to start with,so after a bit of work it will be a stunner.Looking forward to seeing it being transformed.

Not that great with electrics myself either,but that black box looks like a relay could have had the wired george relay mod done to it,have a look here:-
