Hi,

I have a 1978 Z1R which has an emergency kickstarter under the seat, does any body know where I can buy a premanent one finished in chrome.

regards

Why ?are you thinking about fixing a permanant one, are you making some changes to it?

When I got the bike the battery was flat and after charging it up I found out that the electric starter is not working due to the cable being broken.

If this happened on a journey home I was thinking on the hassle of fitting this emergency kickstarter in crap weather.

Having a permenant one fitted to the bike is a quick backup.

Dave

Dave m, better than trying to 'bump start' the bugger! Also, look cool kicking a bike to life, rather than just sitting & pushing a button!

They do seem to fetch good money nowadays tho', and I'd consider getting your under seat one chromed or sumink! :wink:

Thanks,

Where could I buy one from and how much are they.

Can you get a new one or only second hand available?

Dave
