I’ve had the flanges machined flat on the Weber manifold I still have. However it is the longer one. If you send back to me the ones you have I can get them done as well.

It is something I have never done. Those I know who have done it just use an aftermarket filter. Michaels advice is from experience and should be followed.

That’s around £2000. Not a bad price for the condition.

Back in 2011 when I went to My sons wedding in Melbourne I wanted to seize the opportunity and ride with my son.

I looked at all options from getting my bikes to OZ and buying one out there. It was all far to expensive and complicated so I ended up borrowing my sons and riding alone.

Hi Dabbler

I have not forgotten your requests.

ZPower do replica tank badges at £16 each but they are for the B models.

There is another supplier I am trying to track down who also does many other bits including ignition switches (as do ZPower) which I have used and can recommend but again mainly for the B models..

Are you still on a standard…[Read more]

Hi Jett

Yes I still have some.

I have sent you a PM

Welcome young sir

Hello freefaller and welcome.

How looks can be deceiving. It looks quite a tidy bike on the outside. How far are you taking it? Are you gonna go back to original?

One of my CSR twins came from New Mexico. It was in excellent external condition but the heat had fried the majority of the electrics and faded the paintwork. Carbs were full of red…[Read more]

Very nice. How much is that worth out there?

These twin engines are from the Z breed and very over engineered. With regular servicing and oil changes they will accomplish many miles. One of our members bought his twin new and very soon will have taken his around the clock.

The sky is the limit with the right care.

This is all above my head but interesting to read and I applaud those with and sharing the knowledge.

I can’t wait to see the finished product

Thank you Jett

I have looked through these pics and the Link to the build.

I wasn’t initially sure the first picture was a full original S2 but you have educated me there. The only pictures I have of the S2 are on my official Kawasaki parts list but these are black and white and not very clear. It was mainly the tank stripes that confused me as…[Read more]

That looks quite a tidy job.

Bought or created?

well nice kaye

Looks good

Welcome mate

That looks very nice Dabbler. She’s turned out much better than I was expecting I think you’ve picked a good colour scheme there that fits with the era.

Do you have tank badges? There is a place that does reproduction ones at a fair price if your interested.

Good luck with your MOT next week and enjoy your riding. Don’t forget to report on your…[Read more]

Hi Jett

Welcome to our humble abode.

You have 3 KZ750’s then. That is great news especially with the two S2 models as they are very rare in our part of the world if they exist at all. We do not know massive amount about the S2 and I can honestly say I have never seen one in a picture let alone in the flesh.

Do you have any stock pictures you…[Read more]

Hi Dabbler

Firstly the carbs in that picture are not standard CSR carbs. The CSR was fitted with 34mm Mikuni’s. I don’t know what those carbs are from and I am not familiar with them so unfortunately I can not advise.

They might be from the ER5 or KLR? which I believe will also fit.
