Any of you guys with early Z1's know if the euro bike twin disc option was thin or thick disc's?, or did thin twin discs come along after 75?

Should have plenty of 650 bolts for sump, crankcase and cam cover. I swopped em out for sstainless socket hrad on my custom build. I'll check it out tomorrow. Anything in particular your after?

Looking good Nigel, good luck with the sale.

I would think 650 ones would be the same. So you could broaden your search with more chane of success. Although I would just fill the new scollops with plastic metal or jb weld or something. Gotta to be easier and shed loads cheaper than finding the new bits.

OEM are a kinda A shaped bracket.

You need to post a price in a for sale thread or the thread will be deleted. So how much do you want for it?

And me. Very shiney

Or add a price to this thread and move her on ignition lock, headstock and cylinder barrels?

Might be obvious but I've seen it before so just checking! You did remove the upper cup of the lower ball race from the frame steering headstock? If not this would explain why the lower yolk was sitting so low and why there was so little thread showing at the top.

Welcome Clive, looks a nice bike. Everything you ever need or want to know is in the collective memory bank of members.
Just try not to fall off it!

Very repairable. A bit off ally welding and 10 mins with a dremel. Even easier if you still have the missing piece, 30 seconds with some jbweld.

If I had the room it would be with me by now. Apart from a few cosmetics and assembly it sounds pretty much done.

Colourtune.

Give us some background. Has this come on recently on its own and prompted rhe carb strip or since some head work was done. Kinda sounds like the symptoms for cam being a tooth out but obviously not if youve touched nothing since it was running well.
