Just landed: Z1000 MK2

[Sgt.Pinback]

Not as new but good result after 10 minutes

[Sgt.Pinback]

As usually after sitting for decades, the mirror "mothers" are stuck and you cant moce them to fix mirror stem correctly. Right side got free, but on the left side I had to cheat with a seal.

Happy with the result

The one I have is airbox if u find any one over there to reprint both I’ll have 20 of each !!!

[Sgt.Pinback]

Dont have that airbox sticker.

Regarding side stand:

Germany and Switzerland had that different side stand,with that bracket and placed more in front.
Not a double spring (that´s on my Z900 A4) but two springs. One on front, one on back.

No seperate over ride switch as shown in your pic but an additional switch on the left handlebar switch.
Different part no. fpr G and SWTZ in the parts book as well

For MK2, that was integrated in the left hand switch as shown above

Hi Uli
you're a lucky ba****d ! People would give an arm to obtain one like that.
Very nice find, your bike will look very good with that original exhaust.
