Hi Guyz,

I'm going to upgrade my XS 650 Special to electronic ignition.
It is currently running the twin points and condensers.

What would be my best option for an "all in one" kit?

So lots of digging through partzilla diagrams looks like they did modify the camshaft in around 83 to run on a roller bearing, the head remains the same but the cam has a roller bearing on the end. The head I have had gone totally oval where the cam runs straight in it. Quiet likely oil starvation ...

Looks like oil starvation.

This is the description for those black pipes : Zephyr 750 Zephyr 1100, Z1,Z2!!!!!!! Does this mean they fit all four bikes? Brand: H2Racing H2Racing Stainless Steel 4 in 4 Full Full Exhaust Muffler System for Kawasaki Zephyr750 Zephyr1100 Z1 Z2 Yes, I saw that too. I wasn't sure if the Zephyr 1100...

Looking and sounding good.

The job on the front hub, was this helecoils ??

Are they 8 x 1.25 or 8 x 1.00 ?

Can you not get the head and caps in line bored, and fit a set of bearings in the head to suit the cam journals?

This is what I’m after.

Is that photo "real" ??

The pipes look like Z1 items.
Even down to the cut out for the centre stand.

I just noticed your post.

I use the name Grim Reaper in 2 other clubs / forums I'm in !!

What a stonker of an example.

it arrived super fast and fitted spot on job done.

It looks sooooo much better.

Guyz,

I have always had a want to twin disc my 73 Z1.
I feel it looks a lot better.

What would I expect to pay for all the items needed, if indeed these items are available?

GPz and Harris were meant for each other!
