Z1 forks always have the fitting for 2 brake calipers ? Z-Power do the complete kit to change from single to double disc !

What forks did you have before as all Z1s , Z900s have mountings for two calipers !

You don't actually need the entire caliper. All you need is the carrier, PMC make a repro carrier that retails here for around 9000yen. Then you will need the right hand pipe which is also still available from Kawasaki...then of course the rubber hoses if you don't already have them.

Twin Discs

I have converted my Z1B to twin Discs

You will need
RH caliper mtg Brkt - Z1 Enterpises do them
additional caliper & disc
Dual brake hose splitter & brake stop lamp switch assembly
additional hose & metal pipe (from splitter to caliper )
RH hose brkt - Mounts between forks and front fender
5/8 bore master cylinder as the single disc one is not up to operating 2 discs
