Thanks Mick Z400d I reckon.I'm begining to have doubts that the lenses are kawasaki.

Anyone recognise these,they've turned up in the garage and I will flog them but I need to know what they are first.The indicator lenses look at first glance like mkll but the're deeper and I hav'nt a clue about the idiot light cover other than it could be Z400,440 possibly :?? http://i368.photobucke...

Well done Brian you must be ower the moon the bike looks great,and spring is just round the corner.Great job

Plod will just be jealous

Two very nice bikes mate,

very nice

A great find Steve.I hope the rebuild goes well it looks like everything is there.
I kept hold of quite a few 250 parts thinking we might get one,one day but something had to go to pay for the KR1s rebuild so I sold most of the bits on ebay.So I've stopped looking,I'll keep an eye on yours tho

Kas great thread thats a very thorough rebuild going on there the 250 will be nice addition to your allready very nice collection. We're rebuilding a wee KR1s different era but a future classic I think.This is whats keeping me from the Z1000r.I've got a this far so far. http://i368.photobucket.com/a...

great job well done.

Was running in Aug last year but stripped down over winter to tidy up a little, which turned out to be tidy up a lot [/quote]

It'll be worth the effort judging by what you've done so far

wow serious attention to detail,

Good looking results.I've just dropped our KR1s cases off today,I've had a go at cleaning them myself but they still look crap.I hav'nt seen an alternative that produces results like those.

A fine glass medium suspended in high pressure water.I was told today.

Our wee Kr1s cases are going to the vapour blasters tomorrow.I've tried every chemical and mechanical means I'm aware of and there nowhere near where I want them.

Brian just been through your project from the start,remarkable.I'm sure you'll sus the electrics.Can't wait to see it on the road.

I can see why you could'nt resist.It's a belter and when a 900 turns up you'll shift the 650 easily.Thats if you want to.I'd find it hard to part with that one
