I am getting ready to fit the sump on my Z1B and notice these holes which look like they should have dowels
Can anyone tell me their purpose ?
Thanks Chris

Oil gallery, in the z1000j book it specifically mentions them.

Re: Advice please
They both have dowels in them. The book calls them 'Knock Pins' and they serve to locate the gasket and sump.
The front has a long bolt through it.
The rear drains oil from the crank case breather.

Hi Chris
I suppose it's the engine of a Z900 or a Z1000A...
since the holes are at the bottom of the lower cranckcase they don't need dowels. Just put the sump with a new gasket and O ring on it and bolt it up.
At the same place between the upper and lower cranckcases the same holes appear but there you need a dowel to put in to align both parts.
If it's a J engine I can't help you...sorry.

Philippe
