I love straight handle bars. Keep them more responsive handling. Interesting pistons there. Assume you are doing a full engine ebuild. Good luck with the rebuild whatever / whichever way you go.

Hope this helps.

Very nice bike, like the Mark II`s especially in black.

wish I had seen this bike before I had mine resprayed , so similar :( http://www.kcmotorcyclepaintwork.co.uk/kawasaki-z1-painting-evolves/ Does look very nice. My paint set was done at Altamura in Camberley. They did a very good job even if their customer services has taken a knock since the owners...
