You can get new pattern ones for US spec Z1000Rs which are similar to Js (but not the same)

Thanks for the feedback. I thought that not going into second when not running would be by design Regarding the cam chain, I assume you can get one for the GPZ which is not endless and can be pulled through with the old chain then joined ? Probably, there's a man in Wickford, Essex who does this, I...

It'll only go into neutral and 1st with the engine stopped, gearbox should be good as they're bloody strong. Worth taking the top end off to have a look at what needs doing, cam chain might need replacing, new one from Kawasaki is about £45 (well my one was) and isn't a massive amount of work if you...

Chris at Grumpy 1260 sells them, I think he lists them on ebay

An Italian Tune Up consists of giving the bike a good thrashing, it gets fuel flowing through the jets and cleans carbon out of the engine, if I were you'd I'd do a couple of hundred miles on the bike and see if the running improves, but the worst it's going to be is gummed up pilot jtes or emulsion...

Is it okay if I have a think about it, I quite fancy coming out for a drive but I need to work out when, would a Saturday afternoon be okay?

I'll have it as I could do with a spare, can you post it or would you like me to collect it.

Holy crap, 318 euros per injector, a set of Mikuni flat slides is a lot cheaper than that, if you want CV carbs Z1000J ones fit, if you want modern CV carbs I think Suzuki GSXR/Bandit ones fit with a firm push (the spacing is slightly different)

I need to have a good long think before I commit to anything, I'm trying to only have one project bike on the go at once, otherwise they end up taking years.

after reading all the posts on this thread ,I havnt a clue what all the fuss was about , or why the thread was with drawn all I can say is what a farce its turned out to be and im just gunna list it on ebay in the near future hopefully,dont think I bother using the for sale section again,cheers nei...

Considering it was sold before most people get up in the morning, why argue about shit that doesn't matter, there's Facebook for that.

Nice bike and probably less money than I've spent on my collection of parts (I'm not adding it up, I stopped at £4K)

Regulator rectifier is fecked if it's overcharging, replace ASAP or you'll have a cooked battery.

Very nice GPZ, as someone has said put it on eBay at £6K and see if it sells.

Just ride the bloody bike and stop worrying about it

Seriously though what problem do you have and how do you think Z1100R lowers will fix it?
