Hi TJ,
if that ignition is intended for use on the crankshaft or to rotate with crankshaft speed, it shouldn’t be a problem to use it.
Just use the pickup intended to “spark” either cylinders 1+4 or the “other” ones, 2+3. You may even remove the odd sensor.
Finally it is just the same ignition as used with a single cylinder engine but has a…[Read more]

Hi Andy,
that hotel is a small one, so no chance with that.
The campground is limited, but last year arriving at Saturday early afternoon gave us the last few available camp spaces.The earlier we get there, the more likely we can select one of the spaces.
Interestingly the camp ground and the “road of clubs” is parallel to each other, but has…[Read more]

Hi KK,
good to know that !
I use the BS34 on my B and they work fine.
May post a pic of the “reduced” choke knob.
Cheers, Michael

Ahh, in regards to a previous posted pic.
The upper pair are the intake boots of a BS38 carb (stock with the B models), the lower shown pair seems to be the intake boots for the BS34 carbs (stock with LTD models)
Carbs and boots must match and in general both work fine with our Twins.
I like the BS34 more 😉
Less complicated !Cheers, Michael

Hi Kenny,
these are the BS34 carbs of the LTD models. Only one single “Throttle opener wire”.
Mounted in a B with stock fuel tank and fuel cock, you may cut a bit of a half of the plastic knob away to pull the choke completely. That will avoid contact with the fuel cock.
They are 34mm and only fit in intake boots from the LTD models, which…[Read more]

“Geht nicht gibt’s nicht!”
means:
“That will never work, but we make it work!”Another saying is:
“The people that say, that will never work, should not stand in the way of the people who make it work !”Viel Erfolg !

Haha !!!
You may take part at the sprints, but there are several classes and definitely your application is needed.
No free sprints at any time !The most classes are organised by the Glemseck 101 coordinators and some (3?) classes are organised by others.
“Sultans of Sprint” is one of these separate organised sprints and it had international…[Read more]

Hi TJ,

Hi Beachcomber,
that are fantastic news !
Our plan is to have an own stand of the german Z750Twin community at Glemseck 101 this year 2017 !
Final decision of the organisers, if we will get a place to put our stand on, is by beginning of May 2017.
Can’t accelerate that.Looks like about 10 attendees on Z750Twin have…[Read more]

Michael replied to the topic Silencers in the forum How To Fix It 8 years, 9 months ago
One of our members in Germany is producing stainless steel downtubes.
They are matching all Z750Twin models and are without “H-tube”-connector. They have an upswep angle welded in for use with straight silencers.The downtubes are single-walled, have a much larger inner diameter than the double-walled stock downtubes.
This will lead to a bit more…[Read more] -

Hi Evil Twin,
it is not about law and order, it is about respect.
This is a forum for Z750Twins and we respect you, even if you have recently posted multiple threads about a Z1000 LTD.
Well, that bike is great and we love to see your progress with it !
For sure I am interested in Kaye’s progress with her new bike, even if that is not a Z750Twin…[Read more] -

She still looks gorgeous Marko but slightly naked without a grab rail lol.
Your adventures were great to look at. I do hope we can see more some day soon.
Have a good year mate and ride safe.

Michael replied to the topic B1, restoration and slight Caferacer conversion in the forum New Projects 8 years, 9 months ago
I was working on the redesign of the seat plate and already lowered the grab rail.
Grab rail is unchanged, just filed a “long” hole into the frame and used Inbus / allen head screws to fix it.
Cut the rear frame today to get an even surface to put the stock plastic caps in again.
Fitted the plastic side cover of a G-model and will fit a “like new”…[Read more] -

Hi Mike,
good to talk about that.
I can’t make it, as I am in Germany and the travel plan for June is already crowded.As I am organising the Z750Twin meetings in Germany, I prefer the weekends close to “Full Moon”. This will provide some light in the night.
Exactly 24th of June is the opposite, we call it “New Moon” (no moon shine at that…[Read more]
