new toy

lovely bikes but after 6 months of a GSXR I am for too fat for these!

Cooling the engine sounds reasonable but mine definately conected to the air box. I know because it was a bastard trying to cnnect all the pipes and get the tank back on at the same time.

read through this & it will explain the differences from model to model

Its better than this one

Hhhmmmmmmm. Now I'm confused! Mine was H1 (1989) which I got in 92. That says the first to have ram air was L1, L2 & L3 in 1993. Mine definately had ram air so must have the airbox swopped a year before it was available and thats assuming it was possible to fit it!

Thanks for all the posotive comments, as far as the hoover pipes go when i take the tank off i will take a photo, i always thought they were decorative rather than functional but still quite cool. I bought the bike near Northants so its not your old bike im afraid Warren.
Phil - I sold my Rgv, this ticked alot of boxes as a replacement including the all important Spa entry form.
Martin - the manual would be great I'm sure an arrangement can be made.
Its already got a Hagon shock on it and new fork seals but im going to pull it to pieces before Spa to check everything. I had heard the belt was trouble.

H1 hoover pipes were mainly decorative and didn't connect to the airbox.
I've had a few including the one that donated it's running gear to my Z1R.

Looks great Dave, i have been having exactly the same thought for the last six months as a spare trackday bike.
Are you taking it to Spa?

Hi Al,
I have applied to take it to Spa with the Gpz as a spare bike, Im waiting for confirmation its all good from the organisers.

Good luck Dave i'm in the same position but without the ZXR or GPz if you see what i mean.

Im sure it will be fine - if not I will be there on my pc50 like last year, chasing my brother on his go faster c70 around the perimeter track. Even though i had pedals I still couldnt keep up!

I nearly bought a 1991 J reg SINGLE SEAT K1 version in 1995!!

I really wish I had bought it as they are pretty thin on the ground now.
