Morning Phillippe I hope these pics are enough to identify the seat. As can be seen it has no brackets so has not been put on to see if it fits 0586D79E-1D9C-483E-A372-E6E23A408CE1.jpeg 034BCB64-01A7-47D9-8949-C17547470DFA.jpeg 09A26583-9650-4567-9867-F7579BB219B8.jpeg 018748C7-B607-451D-B367-F11218...

Phillippe
I will post some tomorrow morning.

Does anyone know the location of the part no. on the mk2 seat pan, I was told awhile ago by the previous owner that he had bought a Z1000ST seat by mistake, this seat came with the bike when I brought it home. Today I thought give it a clean up and put it on eBay, while cleaning the pan I noticed th...

It’s the company and Zeds that make a good meet

Bobbyz1085 has a set of imd pistons in his zed, they have been a good few.years.and take regular abuse and still running strong. HTH Cheers good to know, I decided that I don’t want to up the power or performance engine wise, although it will be running new pistons etc the rest of the engine is 40y...

I have am to get the barrels on my mk2 project rebored, the bike has 65,000 mls on the clocks, I have decided to just go to 0.5mm over Standard. Have any of you guys had any reviews or experiences with IMD Pistons https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KAWASAKI-KZ1000-Z1000-1015cc-PISTON-KITS-4-NEW-0-50mm/16245...

Again, I'll see nearer the time but all being well....

Coose I plan to sail from Hull on the Thursday, the site is approx 120 mls from Zeebrugge

The previous owner of my mk 2 needed a new seat and got hold of an ST and told me it didn’t fit right although I didn’t see it myself, I have got this seat so will check out the differences later today

Philippe. Thanks for your info. I know about the 124 links on the cam chain, the upper guides are in very good condition with no play, I will be putting a new chain in while it motor is apart also a new front guide and a lower roller 01CAEF7D-20B1-44EB-A622-01A779EEF45F.jpeg E5B0890E-54D9-422F-8202-...

A little more work / investigation on the engine, unfortunately I had a couple of 6mm bolts snap then borrowed an impact gun ( getting one of these) after starting with the gun every bolt came out quick and easy so much so I got a bit carried away with the strip down, Found that the front cam chain ...

Better add me to the list, also waiting for a decision from a mate of mine

I see we have 2 Taff’s going

Hi guys
I have just been sent the dates for the 2019 Belgium Rally

Friday 30th August - Sunday 1st September

The reason I ask is, I am stripping the MK2 engine and originally I was convinced that it had never been apart before, however I have just removed the oil pump and there was only 1 knock pin instead of 2 and you can see the crankcase half’s have had non setting gasket on them, I was sure that when I...

Gave the the carbon build up a clean with a fine scotchbrite pad soaked in oil, needs more work but only spent just over 5 minutes per cylinder to get to this stage, had give up before hypothermia set in, (the trouble with concrete garages this time of year ) Also noticed the valve cut on No1 exhaus...

Taken a look at the cylinder head over the last couple of days a good degrease a coat or 2 of a good paint stripper (the original coating is proving to be stubborn) It appears the exhaust valve clearances where virtually closed because of the carbon build up, I also believe the head has been off at ...
