MMM it is looking better. I might redo my CSR this year. The paint has not taken too well. It will be after the ACE Café run.

It is looking very nice. You be careful though your getting a little bit to excited I feel lol

Well we are still 4. I have a new member pending (the one in keep or sell thread) but we need more.

Aerial0 what about you? Chrislwg is your area so there is a companion straight away.

Did you have any joy on the social media Lonesome?

Come on guys there must be a few more. Let’s make it a record 6 at least.

Hi AtLarge,

really a good looking Twin !

Keep it, ride it, have fun with it !
Nice bike in good condition.

Cheers Lonesome we need all we can get.

The response to this rideout is disappointing. People are happy moan about the lack of rides and meets we have. Where are you all now?

My understanding is 4 members are coming;

Kaptainkwak
Chrislwg
Yorkshire Kaye
Lonesome

Come on guys lets get these bikes back on the map for the right reasons

Hi KK,

I know the stories about fixing Twins aside the road 😉
Especially the road to Belgium in 2014.

But everything worked out fine 😉

Cheers, Michael

Hi Kaye,

you want to fit the stock airbox again ?
That is a good idea to run the bike without hazzle 😉
… except the rubber part that connects airbox and carbs !
Think about the moog(?) conversion as already discussed. You are in the position to find the best one that matches and let us know which one you have selected (manufacturer, part…[Read more]

Who else got “big” bikes despite the Z750Twins ?
Maria has her Yamaha YZF600R “Thundercat” and I have a “Kawasaki” labeled Honda VFR750F, both 98 HP (which is a certain insurance level in Germany). More power is the “open class” and costs about double the insurance of the 98 HP limit bikes.

Cheers, Michael

Hi Kaye,

hope these will work with your “new” carbs 😉

Good luck !

Cheers, Michael

Hi Luke,

welcome to the forum !
Nice bike 😉

Cheers, Michael

If memory serves me right it was all painted except the outer covers which were polished

Looking good pal. Will you coat it at all or leave it like that?

Smart Arse

Hi Michael.

It was intentional. That is what I believe it stands for and certainly makes sense with our twins. I was told this some years ago by someone in a Kawasaki shop

I may be able to help with wheels.

I had mine respoked with stainless spokes using original rims and getting the centres bead blasted. I can’t remember the final cost as I had other things done too but seem to recall about £80 each wheel in the end.

Before that I did a refurb on my wheels which went quite well. I painted the spokes and nuts…[Read more]

Hi Leema

I am glad the advice on the vac tap proved good and it was a cheap fix for you.

What is the red line set at on the rev counter?

Standard piston rings on EBAY

Ace café Kawasaki Day on a Honda??? 😆 I don’t know anything about that

Speed up with your rebuild you’ve nearly 4 months man!!!

So we gonna get progress pictures soon then? Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Think I’m going to have to get another garage/workshop too. What little space I had to work in is now being quickly filled up with a pile of twin spares I’ve just bought and I’ve another potential purchase of spares pending

No worries Chrislwg I fully understand.

Michael. I will get some drawings knocked up then we can have the details to get some made.
