Z1300 engine number

#1 PostAuthor: ogri211 » Sat Oct 12, 2019 11:39 am

I have started to restore a Z1300 that I got from a friend, it has been off the road for about 20 years, he got a replacement engine for it about 25 years ago, and I suspect looking at it close that its from an early injection model (ZG1300 A1), my reason for this is firstly it has the squarer cases with the filler on the left hand side and also the Engine number apears to tie in with this, he ran it for years with the carbs without a problem, the Engine number is KZT30AE019745 I would be grateful if anyone with the correct knowlage could confirm what model this engine is from. Another issue I had was looking for a flywheel rotor as mine was damaged, I have not been able to get one with the orrect number on it but have got one that I think is from a voyager, it looks identical apart from the small plate that pulses the pick ups is one piece on it and 2 pieces on the original, the pickups have the same part number so I think it should work OK.
