Hi Bevan.
Long time no speak, welcome back. You’ve done a great job on your restoration, it looks amazing.
Re the petrol leak I have had the same problem. I have tried all sorts and not managed to fully solve the issue. It is fine on the centre stand so I am going to swap the bowl gaskets for genuine Kawasaki ones as soon as I can find some.

Hello,
first sorry for triple post above, I do not know how that happened.
I am posting a couple of fresh picture of my twin. As you may have noticed, the handlebars are new – a bit wider and higher, feels more like a cruiser now and that was the intention. Had to change the clutch cable because of that for a longer one. Also, I had to re-chrome…[Read more]

It is much cheaper and easier. You can give zinc a very light buff to shine if you want to.
I can supply starter clutch repair kits. I have a great relationship with Zpower so if I don’t have it here I can usually get it there. Just let me know.

Hi Nairb
Back in the day it was the trend to remove the grab rail and fit a rear carrier. Guess the grab rails got lost and binned.
You are right about the Stainless Steel ones. It is me that gets them made and I still do. I can also supply new starter clutch repair kits and most other parts you may need, I have sourced most things. Give me a…[Read more]

I believe they are zinc plated, including the chain adjusters which if you intend to restore is good for you as zinc plating is far cheaper than chroming.

That is quite shocking news Karl. I do wish you a speedy return to health and all the best wishes for your family. Stay strong pal.
It’s such a shame you won’t be there mate but I will raise a glass to you. There is a possible 14 twins going which will be by far the biggest gathering in the UK. I do hope to do it again and that time you will come 👍 -

Hi NevT
Have you done a full refurb of the starter inc new brushes etc?
I use and swear by Motobatt batteries. A bit more expensive but very durable and reliable.
