Have you got enough bikes?
I'm sure we could put my Z in Rob's van with his, it isn't a pretty bike though, it's a bike for riding not hiding.

Re: 2 Stroke Project required

I think the 2 stroke Saab is a 93 and the 4 stroke a 96. I raced a 900 2 stroke Wsrtburg in Autocross in the mid 80s, it went in the same class as the 1000cc 4 strokes, and left them all sitting in a cloud of smoke away from the start, unfortunately they all passed in the next couple of corners as i...

Re: Z1000J Build

I like the red, but mine will be staying green, and mine's a Wayne Rainey rep, not a Lawson rep :D

Re: z900 current drain

If it's been fine and gone wrong without any changes being made then you have a fault rarther than the Dyna S drawing current as a normal function, if the voltage only drops with the Dyna S connected then the fault is with the Dyna S, inspect all the wiring carefully, most likely place for a fault i...

Re: How I've come to own a modified Z1000J and it's refurb

Put a few miles on the Z yesterday, went out on the CB400 this morning, it felt gutless and bland after the 1170, but at least it has good steering lock, the Z has lock stops to stop the forks hitting the tank

Re: My new zed build

Have you moved to Australia?

Bike looks fantastic, having seen this and Slappa's other Z, the standard of finish is superb.

Re: How I've come to own a modified Z1000J and it's refurb

Running for more than half a mile now, checked all the wiring connectors, re ran the fuel hose, cleaned the tap and found out Prime isn't quite where the tap said.
Also drilled and lock wired the sump plug.

Re: How I've come to own a modified Z1000J and it's refurb

I've ridden it, engine felt lovely for the half mile it ran for, it's not so much fun to push home, think it's not getting enough fuel through the tap, next test ride will be on prime and no hills.

Re: Z1000J Carbs for Sale

No idea what model J they come from, but I'm happy to look for any identifying marks, if you're going to Donington on 6/7 May I can put them in the car and you can have a look at them there
