Hi KK,

there are several other twins or large singles out there that have no balancer weights 😉
Yamaha XS650 or SR/XT500, maybe some of the english twins, not sure.

Maybe the counterweight at the crankshaft must be modified as well to find the best compromise in reducing the forces in vertical direction (agains piston) and in horizontal…[Read more]

NOOOOOOOO 😮 😮

I believe it has been tried and the bike just hops uncontrolably like being on a pogo stick.

I personably would not attempt it because with the pistons going up together something needs to counteract the forces 😛

Your right Michael it isnt perfect translaction but it is 99% understandable. Ive read quite a lot or your site now and communicated too.

Thank You again Michael. However i have found a great way for us English folk to view your website.

If we enter your site German Z750 Site using google chrome it gives the option to translate the page from German to English. There is a drop down menu on the right hand side that lets us select ‘Always translate German to English. This…[Read more]

Now this is the type of thing i like to hear. We have a reasonable stock of shims here in the UK. I personally would be happy to swap shims and cost would then only be postage. If we do not have the right sizes and have to order from OZ my son lives there (Melbourne) and i have other OZ contacts too so could probably get better postage.

Hi guys,

that 6-cylinder Twin isn’t real as you already found out !
It is “Photo-choped” around the year 2000 and now 13 years old 😉
It was placed on the former german Twin website hosted by Garfield from 1999 to 2001. Since 2002 I am doing the german website.

Btw, here is new “photo-chop” 😉
Or is it real ?
Not yet, but ……[Read more]

OK and thanks again.

I am hoping to use the hydraulic clutch setup from a zrx1200 as i have a spare one. I also heve the matching brake reservoir which both should be plenty powerful enough 😀

and this is my Honda VFR750 with Kawasaki and Ninja stickers on it at the Twin meeting in Germany 2011.

I had so much fun with this bike under the Kawasaki label, ROFL 😉
Especially at a large Kawasaki meeting.
One fan want to take some pictures of this really great Kawasaki Ninja with single side rear swing arm !
ROFLcopter !!!

Cheers,…[Read more]

Yes its for my CSR Custom build. I want to go twin disc which is why i need LTD forks. I have the levers and reservoirs from a GPZ and a ZRX and i am doing a hydraulic clutch conversion too.

PM me please with a price for the bits if you have them. I can get them over here but i dont know when.

and the VFR frame around the Twin motor:

Hardcore project at a very early stage:

Hi KK,

have you placed pictures of your bikes in the forum?
Please advice how I can find them 😉

I will use CSR wheels in my hardcore chopper project 😉
But until now that is just a LTD frame, front fork, it’s dual disc brakes and fuel tank, a 35 cm Apehanger and advanced(?) foot pegs.
Short dual rear suspension lower the height of the…[Read more]

I have exhausts and carbs 😀

Am interested in front forks and a right hand caliper. Would i need a pair of discs too?

Alot would depend on postage costs 😮

Now that is customised lol and it looks awesome. Keep us posted there.

I have 2 1/2 CSR’s. One i want up to showroom standards. One i want to customise my way and the rest im hopping to turn into a bobber made from any Kawasaki parts but with the twin engine.

These should compliment my ZRX lol

That is a really good question. I did hear a few years ago that only around 3000 were sold in the UK in its time.

Unfortunately i have absolutely no idea how that figure may have changed today but my guess would be only a few hundred with many of them being imports.

Dont even know where to find out. We did try the DVLA (our driving record…[Read more]

other side:

Yeah, this guy rides a green bike.
No, it was a black bike he rode !

Even the mirrors and the handle bar holders are in different color 😉

For travelling I use a wooden (!) “rear carrying device”. Works well 😉

Cheers, Michael

Thats great michael and thank you. I only wish that we (our nation) were able to do similar

Thats cool. Ive recently been looking at the bikes in the pics of your 2012 meet. I’m wanting ideas for a bobber style project and i have been inspired by a few of your members bikes.

We must meet again sometime.

Hello Michael and welcome to our humble abode. I remember our meet in Belgium. It was a great time and we must do it again.
Pull up a chair and wait for the others to come along. I will try and address the html text in your previous post.
Cheers for now
KK
