Z1 fuel tank

[scott reid]

Hi folks, I'm after a z1 petrol tank. Condition isn't too important, as long as it holds fuel.
Thank you
Scott

hi harty, what's the tail~piece like? how much too please? thanks mark.any photos at all? 07510529545 or markjordan069@gmail.com ta

Hi Hartyb, it's for a 1973 frame. The year doesn't matter too much, as long as it's the tank with the seams tucked further underneath. If it's the early style side panels I'd be interested in them too.
If you want, you can contact me on 07736431590 to send photos and discuss prices.
Thank you

Scott

Hi Scott

if the tank should be for a 73 Z1 it's a bit different from the Z1A or Z1B tank.
The "kawasaki" badges of a 73 Z1 have small badges ( holes 120 mm ), the later ones have bigger badges (holes 142 mm).
Just to let you know.
Greetings
Philippe

hi scott reid,as you advertised for a tank, n not a tail piece or side panels; I hope you realise that club protocol kinda favours 1st to register an interest. my query regarding the tail piece still stands..mark

[scott reid]

Hi mark, that's fine by me. I should be able to get repro panels through the club. Scott

think the side pannels are z1000 a1 not z900

really not sure about the tail unit just about to have a look at it up against a z1000a1 unit i have

if i could work out how to post pics lol I would just need a few mins to what you do now photo bucket is out of action

thanks to Philppe's vast Knowledge

the Tank I have has 142mm badge screws holes making it big Badge model, still under tank seams


looking at the tail unit it does appear to be the same as a Z1000a1 but not been a 900 exspert i dont know

side pannels are made in the USA with a part number of 36001-054-1 left the right is also made in the USA but with no part number and has had new Badge holes drilled wider apart so could well be off a earlyer bike the bottom lug is lower and bigger

pic would help a lot I know
