Scott,
Use IG Welding Services behind the parade of shops on Allaway Ave, Paulsgrove. Ivan was recommended to me by a mate and ended up doing a lot of welding jobs for me including shock mounts. Normally beer money for small jobs.

Very good welder! and nice bloke but call first.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to make up the spacers whilst the swing arm was off of the bike.

Gents,

Anyone with similar experience?
Thanks in advance.
Martin

Martin

I had to use different rubber cushions (katana ones) but essentially it now fits and just needs the rear cus...

Paul,
Thanks for the offer. I will post some picture tomorrow that may explain the problem better. Maybe I should have asked if there is any frame differences between the US J1 and European J3 particularly around the tank mount area.
Martin

Ok, thanks. Looks like the grinder will becoming out tonight !!!
Martin

Thanks for the reply but the bike is definitely a J1 (says on the frame number) and I got the tank from Lomi who is selling J3 parts).

I have a US import J1 and have finally got hold of a good condition Euro spec J3 fuel tank. Being fairly clueless about Kawasakis I thought the swap would be straight forward but... The J3 tank is narrower than the J1 tank at the front end where it sits on the circular rubber mounts. Has anyone come...
