Thanks I will try these suggestions over the next few days . One other thing that happened and this was in 2000 on a z rally that the wires from the electric ignition side (points side if it had points ) melted on the exhaust and kept miss firing / shutting down higher speeds which I fixed with tape...

Thanks mark

Got a problem .my st has been in the family from new so it’s 99% original and std as from the factory : I went to use it at the start of last summer and I found it seemed to shut down at about 3.5 thou revs I could shut of the throttle and re twist and it would pick up again only to shut down as if ...

I had this problem years ago the alloy wheels which I thought was from a z1000 were actually from a z650 the front was no problem but the rear had to have the inner spindle made and a washer between the disc calliper and the spacer fitted in order to get it right , yours could poss be from a 650 as ...

And then keeping my a1 and shaftie on the road at the same time . I’m running out of ...

Sorry about the poor wording oh the question .the answer you gave makes sense that the two ports between carbs 1+2and3+4 are air vents .you could easily think that was where a petrol pipe could go !

Hi , I was swapping my carbs over from a pair of Rx 1000 and noticed that there was 1 petrol pipe feed down to the back of the carbs and this pipe fed all 4 carbs via a t piece between 2 and 3 and feeding the 1 + 4 carb along the same route the 2 nd petrol pipe went to the 2 nd carb where the rubber...

Just done my st tonight after a complete rear brake strip down replaced two pistons and seals but z power don't do a master cylinder repair kit for my model so i cleaned up the old one which was gunky , rebuilt it all and used my bleed pump and within 5 minuets the brake was bled and perfect. Happy ...

Buy a brake bleed pump kit cost about £12 . This works wonders and you won't go back to the old way of pump a few times and then release bleed nipple . This pulls the fluid through
