Spoke to Hutchy at Stafford, he's no longer doing paintwork as he is retiring...

Try Z1 Classics in Derby.

Off top of my head 28mm MG +/- 2mm.

Glad to hear it. Pretty cheap I thought.

Hi Paul, Appreciate you checking that for me...thanks. Out of interest, do you appear to have much adjustment from the point where the throttle stop screw touches the wheel? On the carbs I'm working on I haven't actually measured it but it only seems like a couple of millimetres. Cheers, Steve Stev...

Hello and welcome. Will be good to see another ST on the road. Good luck!

I'd love to keep the J but I really have too many bikes on the go and running out of room. (as I also have a z900a, a z1000a1 and GL1000 on the way)..
But we'll see...

Good to hear!

Eeeek! Just agreed to buy this rather fab z1000j, just for the exhaust system to use on the MK2! Then I'll put a 4/1 on the J and sell it on. (Unless I decide to keep it.... :lol: ) https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/59883842_627062351094534_5521942712623824896_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&_nc_h...

Pilippe,
I did mean J, not K...

Thanks, I will go ahead with my plans with a J system.

Looking forward to it Philippe

Nice. Another head saved!

Hi Ultim8pc you're right, they are the same but with different stampings. On the underside of the frame of my MK2 there are mounting points allthough the original MK2 exhaust I have doesn't have lugs to attach them with bolts on there. Philippe, thanks for your knowledge as ever. So just to clarify...

Can anyone confirm that I am right in thinking that the exhaust from the z1000J is the same as the MK2 but with different part number and stampings?
