Z1300 Tail Light

#1 PostAuthor: ZedHead » Wed Feb 28, 2018 1:53 pm

Z1300 Tail light looks the same as MKII but part number is different. Can anyone confirm if they are the same or not?

Cheers

Dave

Not sure but I think it's a little wider as well.

def not the the same

they are hard to get because of Arto Nyquist, the Finnish stunt rider, caused a sensation in the 1980's riding a Z1300. Even now 30 years later its damned impressive...not sure there are any Z1300 tail lights available now!
