Don’t think its the tacho cable but not really had chance to investigate yet but the shorts problem with my shanks won`t be an issue !
Thanks Lonesome,
Yeah very heavy buggers for what they are. No centre stand on it until I find one but I`m looking at modifying the stand or as suggested trying a longer stand. Yeah love the bike seems to run ok just a few weeps of oil at front end to sort and that`ll do for now, just want to ride it a bit before I start doing anything major. Keep trying to upload some photos but being a bit of a techno cripple haven`t managed yet. Cheers.Hi again,
Hopefully the sleeves I had made have sorted the spindle issues, time will tell. Has anyone tried fitting a longer side stand to a B1 as mine seems to have a bit of a lean on. Cheers Joe.Cheers for the info KK, the trouble I have is that the conversion was done before I got the bike so I`m in the dark as far as knowing what has actually been put on. The sprocket, wheel and disc all line up fine but the spindle sleeves are missing so there is too much possibility of vertical movement for the spindle. I saw an engineer up the road yesterday and asked him to make a couple of sleeves for the grand total of £5 ! I`ll give this a go to get me running but I will investigate your suggestion further as I`m not sure if the spindle is a z1000 or 750. Is there a way of telling ? Many thanks for your efforts Joey.
Thanks for your replies folks,
Still a bit confused , does that mean that when Z1000 wheels are fitted the spindle components sleeves collars etc are used from the 1000 or a mix of 750 and 1000, or should the set up be as the diagram kindly supplied by KK and ignore the 750 set up?? Cheers Joe.Does anyone out there know if when the Z1000 mag wheels were used as an upgrade did all the same sleeves spacers and even calipers get used as now its non standard I don’t really know which sleeves etc I should fit ! Any suggestions / diagrams would be greatly appreciated as the spindle at the moment has no means of being secure in the swing arm slots other than tensioners which is obviously never a good thing. Cheers Joey.
Cheers for that. I`m in north Lancashire near Lancaster.I`ve got a spare set of 2 into 1 downpipes that also resemble the predator ones on the bike, maybe try getting them chromed and fit a slip on megaphone silencer ? Really good club, loads of interesting info and photos, I`ll try to upload some of the bike soon. I`ll bet someone knows it as I think one of the previous owners was from Bolton.
