Many thanks seems to be a popular fault

As has been said, if not already done, refurbish the choke plungers or purchase some aftermarket replacements. Also, you need to ensure you have double checked everything else on the bike. I wrote an article which covers this: https://airevalleyclassics.co.uk/badrunning.html Can I still Buy new plu...

Many thanks Guy's Some useful tips here. Two particular "choke plungers one" and "internal O ring TWO". I have looked at the plungers and see no sign of wear ! can these be blanked off in any way, so to check the efficiency ? I would like to rule these out one stage at a time. In...

Hi Guys, beginning to loose it with my Z1R !!! Despite a top end re build re bore and pistons still problems !!!! owned the bike 15 years now. Also fitted with Dyna ignition and Dyna S coils. The bike has always had a plug sooting up problem. To cut a long story short, in the past I had to set the c...

Also trying to keep the bike looking correct.

I have the Clymer manual and it's not a lot of help :!: :!: it looks to me this could be put in 180 degrees out :?: I'm sure when it took it a...

Thanks very much

Hi Guys, anyone point me in the right direction for ring gap and piston and bore clearance. For a 0.50 over sized re-bore. I've just had it done but before re-assembly I want to be 100% sure. As it all seems very tight to me !!!!
Thanks in advance for your help.

Many thanks for the reply

Hi Guys, some years ago i fitted the Dyna S electronic ignition to my Z1R. Recently i decided to fit Dyna coils, that I have done. But it tells you in the instructions, when you are using the Dyna s ignition with the Dyna coils, to remove the Ballast resistor ???? so i have just un-plugged it and re...
