Hi all, looking for a throttle tube for an early Z Push pull type for my Z1B resto project.
Any quick action throttle converts out there got one lying around?
Cash waiting.
Cheers Dave

After a Z1B centre stand with bolts would be nice. any restorable condition will do cash waiting
Thanks Dave

Hi Zedders. I'm after any decent Z1 73 to 76. (Think thous are different) cam cover. My latest project has a little too much corrosion damage evident after vapour blast.
Anything considered. Thanks Dave.

Oh one other thing, thought that reg number looked familiar. Here's a pic of a Z1B I did some restoration work on for a guy in Portugal. Turned out sweet, pity it's no longer in the country, nice UK model too. http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i431/DaveZ1A/Jose%20Z1B/S7003073_zpsa63a9f96.jpg

Hi Floyd. Your B is looking the bussiness, very nice indeed. I have restored quite a few sets of carbs for my own projects and for some club members. Here's a before and after of a set I've just completed for a new members Z1A he's restoring. http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i431/DaveZ1A/Mark%20O...

My god what a coincidence I've seen this engine in the flesh! I was at Steve Smethurst's place on Saturday dropping off a Z1A engine for cleaning and he showed me this gem he'd been working on. He's now offering an engine cleaning service where if your happy your engine is in good order and doesn't ...

Setting the ignition timing on a Z1B and seem to have ran out of adjustment on the base plate and the points plate to achieve the correct setting. I think the advancer is from a later bike A4 or 1000 but when adjusting so the points start to open at 5 degrees BTDC on the F mark, I can't move the pla...

Panic over guys, managed to source two suitable bottom yolks from a breaker and on eBay.
Thanks for your info and help.

Thanks Garyd, trying to stay Z1B if I can but I will look at the A3 type splitter and yolk to see how different they look and if I can get my hands on a splitter etc.
Thanks for the offer might be in touch, cheers Dave.

Thanks KwackerZ1 I stand corrected!
So anything before Z1000J worth considering. Money waiting guys.
Cheers Dave

Thanks guys, Just looked on Zpower site and looks like Z1 through to Z1000a1 were the same size fork sanctions 72 to 77. After that z1000a2 and on wards the fork stanchions went up in size. So the thou yolk should be ok as long as it's a A1. Any corrections from the experts out there welcomed! Cheer...

Looking to replace 2 yes 2!!!! Bottom yokes which have been lost in transit to the painters. These are part of the resto projects of two Z1B's which are now seriously behind schedule because of these lost parts and failure to find replacements in the usual places. Anything you might have around woul...

Jet sizes are Z1000 Main= 107.5 idle= 17.5 Z900a4= Main 115 idle= 17.5 but the needles are slightly different too.
Think I will err on the side of caution and use Z900 jets and needles dont want to risk going lean and risk "blueing" the nice new headers.
Thanks Dave
