Z1R/Mk2 airbox will fit into A1/A2 fairly comfortably and don't look too much out of place, The A4 airbox is quite different in a number of ways from the A1/A2 airbag.

Get shut they're crap! they weren't too reliable when new so even more dodgy now, there's a good chance they will cook your wiring or maybe worse battery acid over your pipes etc.

Re: Z1A parts wanted.

Standard rear wheel rim or complete wheel. While most of the Zed range will fit, the wheels are Month & Year date stamped so might be worth listing when the bike was made in the off chance someone may have a similar date wheel to help keep your bike original. Even f the wheels had the matching ...
