Expect you saw her tootling around the field on that CB200 then? :) Were you manning a stall? - I did see one that looked to have a few Emgo/Doremi (?)replacement handlebar switch assemblies for the UK 900A4, but didn't spot anything else that was Z-orientated (mind you, my eyesight isn't as good as...

.. and very smart it was too! I had a quick chat to a nice couple parked up next to yours (on a Tiger 900xc, IIRC) who had made the trip from the IoW, and we had a good old parley about 900s, CB200s (the lady bought the red one on offer at the jumble!) and all things bike related. In the few minutes...

went to the autojumble today. bagged a couple of bits, so worth the trip. saw a nice shiny P-reg 900A4, single disc, 4-1, parked just outside the entrance. Was getting a lot of attention from the punters as they went in/out . Even after 40 years, they still draw a crowd :)

thanks for all the info, guys - I'm currently reading-up and preparing a parts list for a sump off, oil pump screen clear and poss oil pump out for inspection job. Spent too long waiting for this bike to come along to let it self-destruct for want of a bit of extra TLC. :)

Bl**dy hell - I hope mine doesn't look like that! :shock: The new oil pressure switch does have the little hole in it, as did the one that was replaced. Sight glass checked, and oil level looks ok. Checked the workshop manual and made sure I put the recommended amount in, especially as I changed the...

flickering oil light

Took the A4 out for a ride a couple of weeks ago. Went really well, but on return to home I saw the oil light flicker on a couple of times, but only at low revs (below 2000rpm). Anything over that, no flickering. Fitted a replacement (genuine) oil pressure switch, took it out today - same thing. Onl...

thanks Adrian - will be looking closely for the 'wet clutch' ref. Have also read on here in some old posts about Castrol Actevo 10W-40 semi-synth, the adverts for which state that its motorcycle/JASO/wet clutch compliant. Anybody currently using this in their Z1A/B/A4's? (always thought semi-synths ...

I'm about to do my first oil/filter change on my KZ900A4. My three Suzukis (GS750B, GT250M, GN250J) all seem to run very happily on good old Halfords 10w40 mineral oil, changed regularly at 1500 mile intervals. Any advice on putting this oil into the 900 - a good or bad idea? Is there actually a rec...

A 'Statesider', now in the UK

hi all - I'm a newbie just checking in. Just sorting out my intro, so thought I'd have a go at posting a picture or two. Not being a computer wizard myself, I'm told using the links below will do the business - hopefully it will work ok, and you can have a look! cheers, ddg900 http://i1075.photobuck...
