First picture of the B3, first job was to put the stock rear guard and backlight back on. Next will be Renthal superbike bars and original indicators.

Ian, the seat was on the bike when I got it. It appears to be German made and is very comfortable I'll see if I can find out more about it.

I like the style of the 2:4 seat, but I think they look better on a Zed without the grab rail fitted :D :D

Dave, funny you should say that, just taken the grabrail off to try the MKII bodywork on and have left it off.
Ian, the seat has a sticker on with the following;

Paaschburg & Wunderlich Gmbh
Order number BLO40126:J1837
Kawasaki Z900/Z1000
Sports seat (B)
523-411
KAS7SP

It looks to be fairly new so may be from Kasmo, it has the screw holes for the plunger style and bar type latch.

Took photos of how bike is now and with a dry run with the MKII paintset, will post pics later.

No problem Ian, glad to be of help.
Picture of the B3 as it is now with original small style indicators, Renthal superbike low bars and original front guard. Second picture is a dry run at fitting MKII bodykit. Theres a few things to sort out before going ahead. These are, spacer required for tailpiece at rear mounting point, rear guard or tail tidy for MKII rear light, both side panel bottom mounting points and left hand panel fitment will require removal of welded helmet holder from frame and finally fitment of newly acquired Guiliari MKII seat. Anyone got any pictures of the bottom mounting point fo the side panels?
