Thanks for the help so far, it seems to go away straight after it has started, I think it is worse if started on the side stand, although I do try and start it upright.

Hi, I am getting a clattering sound on start up, the oil px light goes out straight away and it runs fine. I have a manual cam chain tensioner fitted.
Any clues.
Cheers Rob

Weather looks good if cold, good coverage of bikes in CMM. Be nice to see how much mine kicks out before I change the head to the 8 plug, gasflowed, lumpy cam
Rob

Cheers Doebag, I might have the 1100 engine, if it is cheap.
Rob

Someone I know has just discovered some Kwak engines in a barn, can anyone identify them.
KZ110
ZXT00
There is also possibly a z1300 frame as well, if anyone is interested I will try and get his contact details
Cheers Rob

Cheers for that it will help a lot

Rob

Cheers for that, never were any good at electrics that's why I trained as an Aircraft engineer and not Avionics. As you said about the plug leads I will wire them the same way as they are originally.

Rob

Cheers for the info, could they be put in parallel as well, so that each coil (3 ohm) ignites the same plug as if they were standard. Just trying to get my head around the iginition side of things, never have liked the electrics.
Cheers Rob

I will be getting my modified head back soon and have a query with the ignition side of things. I will be fitting green Dyna coils, which match the ones already fitted. The query is how are they wired is it just a matter of splitting each wire to the coils and connecting them in the same order as if...

I copied this from another website, contact Scottie on his email

Hi, I got mine done here, http://www.ccaquablasting.com/. He is near Colchester, well worth the journey. If you look in his gallery, you can see pictures of my cylinder head. He has some awesome bikes in his garage and is quite pasionate about bikes as well.

Rob

CMM are running a Dyno day at Gibsons exhausts, which is near Romford, Essex. It will cost £10 a run, but their will be free tea and cakes. For details on how to get there click on this www.gibsonexhausts.co.uk

Hi, I am after a ignition key for a Z1000J. I have lost my key, I only need it for the petrol cap, as the bike does not have an ignition switch, so any old key will do.
Cheers Rob

I got my master cylinder powder coated, it has a small plastic window and everything was fine.
Rob

Thats the one I have on mine, the other type was not wide enough across the yoke to fit on the side stand lug.
