No Electric Power

Gents, Thanks for all the advice it was very helpful. Problem now SORTED, it was the connection block from the ignition switch to the power supply by the headstock. Will clean the block up when I get time and make sure there is plenty of 'loose' wire around that area. Thanks again to all Sam

No electric's 1977 Z1000A1

Just been out on the bike did about 80miles, no issues running great all electric's working. Went to make a right turn at very low speed to call on my elderly mother and the bike stopped DEAD. No ignition lights nothing! Checked the main fuse, its fine, battery is fully charged. Wiggled all the wire...

Harpic and Coke

How much do you put into the tank, do you fill it right to the top or will say 3 litres of cheap supermarket coke and 1 litre of Harpic do the job?

Thanks

Teardrop Engine mounting nut - which way?

Just fitted crash bars to my 1977 Z1000A1, not sure which way up the lower teardrop mounting nuts go.
Does the pointed end go into the space first or does the hole end go first with the pointed end pointing to the floor?

Can't find anything on the NET about it.

Thanks in advance.

Sam
