...a lot of work, great craftmanship, nice colours but why do people use these good skills to modify a good Kawasaki that much ? :( That's my personal opinion. The bike is transformed into something that only fits for one person and that probably someone else won't completely like. But then again it...

Hi David if the Z900 bottom end comes from a Z1-A-B engine the barrel holes need widening. If the bottom end comes from a Z900A4 it should work.

Hi Jumbo the only thing I know is that there's a camping site (free, no charge) next to the terrain of the meeting, there are a few showers and toilets. You might concider it a bit like a little "woodstock". I think there are other facilities in the neighbourhood but I'm not sure about it....

Hi shorty
the O-ring is not sold seperately by Kawasaki.
You'll have to find one or make one yourself.
It's a square O-ring, the outer diameter is 52 mm, the height is 2,85 mm and it has a width of 2,35 mm
Don't forget it has to be brake fluid resistant!
Good luck

Good luck with the rebuild!

Hi RBY
as far as I know these were not sold seperately...you can try to make them yourself from a felt foil with two hollow pipes.
Don't expect good results from the first attempt! It's possible with some exercise.
Good luck
