Hi All

But of a newbie to this board and to Z ownership - infact so new I don't even have the bike yet. One thing I do know is that I need to source an alternator (rotor, stator etc) and a casing. The bike in question is a z1r 1978. Does anyone know the best place to get either a complete one secondhand or the parts new.

Many thanks.

Welcome allybee,
you can try www.electrexworld.co.uk for a new stator @ £55 +vat, although they don't list a rotor.
You can also try Z Power, [look in links section], or John Browse; 01978 355556, or RB's Classic Kawasaki Parts; 07970 120000.
It's also worth putting a post in the Wanted section of the forum.
E Bay is a good source for parts too.
Good luck, let us know how you get on.

Thanks for the tips Phil.

I've phoned John Browse and he has a rotor in stock at a reasonable price so thats good. Got my eye on a cover on ebay so fingers crossed on that one. As for the Stator I think a new one from Electrexworld is the way to go - i've been quoted around £30 second hand, so might as well buy new.

Cheers Alastair

The new one will have a warranty with it too, [a year i think].
