Hi guys

the air filter boxes of a Z900A4 and of a Z1000 ARE different! The air filters themselves allso!
The rim around the opening of the airfilterbox of a Z900A4 is a bit higher than the one of the Z1000A.
During the past decades a lot of airfilterboxes were removed and replaced by individual airfilters.
Those original filterboxes disappeared in sheds, boxes or wastebins... :evil:
When restoring old Zeds it's difficult to find an original airfilterbox and when you find one it's probably damaged.
So if you find one, take good care of it and try to find out to which model it belongs.
Cheers

Hi Paul,
Are you gonna let Z Power know their listing is incorrect then?
might help someone else out who is less knowledgeable.

Z900 11013-054 was superseded by 11013-058, both NLA.

Pattern replacements for Z900 are in short supply, HiFiltro do not list one at all. It probably comes down to what fits and is available.

the z1000 filter is not as tall as the z900 so will fit a z900 air box its a pity they don't put the dimensions in the description. z power have two filters listed one specifically for the z900 & a genuine one which is listed for z1000 & z900
