the diamond thing is a rubber grommet in the shape of a small diamond that was pushed into the middle of the grill and sits between the rad and the grill. It's to stop it rattling on the rad but grit gets stuck between it and rubs a hole in the rad. I removed the grommet and slightly bent the grill ...

After I'd tried the 4 pots, which worked great I had some radials from a zx6 that I got to fit on my z1000 but never got round to fitting. Had some mounting plates made up for them and they worked great. I then went the full hog and changed the front end. Trouble is with the Rex there's so much you ...

Front Calipers take a lot off looking after, 6 pistons etc, if any problems with them a lot of people fit mk1 1200 bandit ones. (4 pistons). They work just as good,if not better.

8mm deep socket. Make sure you put the same bolts back Into the same holes and if I remember correctly, some allow oil up the side of them. Think there's 2 on the ign advancer cover.

Was wondering if a long rear uk mudguard from a z900a4 will fit a z1b.
I would expect the rear light fitting to be different. ????

Probably In a rush to get home and ride it.

If you can't find any maybe Dave at higgspeed could help with some off his.

Got another email yesterday saying there's a further delay with the tanks.
Beginning to think it'll never get built.

All mine always have fuel in the vacuum takeoffs.

I've got some. I'll get a couple out on fri and choose the best ones.
Remind me though, I'll probably forget. I don't work Fridays now so should get them in the post by weekend.

Just been talking to my mate and he thinks it's a bit too nasty. We'll wait in anticipation of a more standard one coming along. 😉

Er thats very nasty so id expect you to pay me to take it off your hands, but being the person i am I'll not charge you , and to help you out I'll pay postage to my house . I'll ask me mate first though to see if he thinks it's suitable 😉

Anyone got one for sale. Any condition, it's for a race bike me and a mate are building.
Thanks in advance.

Steel. I think. It's been that long ago I forget.🤔

Yep I got the same email. Also got a email with pictures of how the little bracket's fit so I can mount the panels , but still not got the tank so can't fit or start painting it.
It's all good quality stuff but I can't help feel they shouldn't have taken any money until the kits were actually made.
