if Derrick has sold his, I have a few Z1 tanks that I'd sell.

I suppose it depends on what kind of restoration you plan to do - if you are entering contours, or just making it pretty good, to please yourself. No harm in phoning Z power to see what they can do for you - they're very helpful in all Zeddish matters Don't get me wrong. Phil and the gang are great...

See the image from the workshop manual. You may find that when the exhaust arrow is lined up with the head, the inlet one may be slightly pointing down due to cam chain wear. If you are a tooth under (27) then the inlet cam arrow would be one tooth up. The only way to be sure is to remove the top ro...

The head needs to come off and the valves need tipping at the very least. 0.30mm can be ground off the stem to get you in the 220 ish range but you will soon run out of adjustment and really need to be in the thicker end of the shim range which can be achieved by skimming the collets and retainers ...

Z-Power's stickers are OK if you just want a sticker, but sadly they are not very accurate reproductions based on the ones I've had from them.

Sadly, you'll need to remove the head and valves and then have some metal trimmed off the valve stems. While you're at it, it would be advisable to check and sort the valve guides as seats. This is a job best left to those who are properly skilled and equipped. Depending where you are in the UK will...

Not stock but functional and unseen when fitted.

Indeed. Easy enough to do.

*** Provisionally sold *** As many of you will know I organised a group buy with Busso for some of their 4/2 exhausts and it was all a bit of a saga. I still have a set I bought which have a manufacturing issue (surprise, surprise) and gave up on Busso replacing them and I am never going to use them...

Nice, but way overpriced.

The brass tees are aftermarket and they are superior to the OEM ones in terms of performance and longevity. These outsell the OEM one by 10-1 and are a good alternative if you want reliability and don't care that it's not original. They should push in all the way so both o-rings are inside the body....

I am interested in your side panels, how much do you want for them please? And where are you?

Hi,
I'm near Skipton in Yorkshire.
I'll send you a PM.

The way to tell definitively is to show us a photo of the tailpiece looking from the rear.
Z900 is more squared off.

Thanks for the offer Nigel, the one Haydn sent me, is great but doesnt fit my model its slightly too big, just my luck, although it is correct one for my bike an Z900 A4, my guess prev owner put on wrong Tailpiece as per earlier model but cant confirm that as looked at both models on ebay and some ...

I have a nice tray without the rubber.
let me know if you want some photos
Thanks
Nigel

I have a nice pair of OEM ones.
