Thanks for that Ginger bear, it has had atttention to detail, lots of cash spent on so many new parts by previous owner/owners, it needed the carbs sorting maybe thats why they moved it on i dont know. I have spent time running through all possibles with it and now realise carb no 3 it not fuelling ...

Its been a weekend of setting up amongst other things, a bit of a roller coaster as usual but today sounding good. Will let you know tomorrow the progress after a ride. Went out on Saturday for a test ride, salt down so hose down after, pulls good and strong, although a vast improvement and now tick...

Took the cam cover off and the cams ae marked Made in USA, CWC with a 22 in an oval c...

I may be a bit late replying but i have just found these same cams in a recently bought Z1000, i am trying to find info also.

Bike has arrived, carbs have throttle stop on the underside with pilot screws on the side. Bike runs great once past low running but needs setting up, anyone used Z1R carbs on a Z1000 A1 with a 4-1 Marving exhaust? or any other tips for setting up crbs would be appreciated, thanks.

Thanks, i will check for mixture screws and position of thottle stop screw.

Hi can anyone help here to identify the differrence between Z1000 A1 carbs and Z1R carbs from the outside or code number. i know if i took them off i could measure them as Z1000 are 26mm and Z1R are 28mm. Just bought a Z1000 and on the list of bills it says Z1R carbs have been fitted, any ideas plea...
