standards, cant remember the teeth off the top of my head, but kept it all standard

Ok thanks guys, i'll give it another look, cause im waiting on the speedo drive to come from the states i got my mate to beep his horn at 60 to give me a guage while riding, i thought surely the rest of the speed cant fit in them last 4k revs?

Bikes not been right since i had it on the road, i think the clutch is slipping, at 60mph shes at 4-4 1/2 in top gear and seems overly revvy so dont think clutch is engaging fully? Is there a sensible way to approach it? is it a pretty straight forward job? how do i tell if its the plates or down to...

thats the beast, ordered, thanks for finding one

If youve got the round black thingy on the left hand side front wheel spindle with a long black rubber grommett and three wires in it then that setup is standard J1. There is an American version which has different tell tales in it as well. I think J2 went over to a cable driven arrangement but not...

You could pm RobW as i believe his is the electronic speedo with an alternative drive mechanism (wheel mounted magnets). The speedo head itself as yet defies rebuild due to the complexity or availability of the chip but it may still reveal itself in due course. The odometer similarly is sealed shut...

ok thanks for the info, is there a replacement avaliable if needed?

Thanks Dude, i'll have a look

I think they are shims that clip onto the calipers, trying to rebuild brakes and realised that they got swept up in the crap on the floor, any idea where to get them? i need 4

All sorted, Cheers Jeff, good to meet ya

Keep up the good work

Cheers Guys, whatever i do bike wise in the future(poss z1r), this one will be a keeper

I'm totally not sure what im going to do with her long term, but im going to start getting standard parts stored away just incase

next job pads and a brake fluid change, then to find a steering damper then the dreaded mot
