Kawasaki Sportsbike Riders Club - Australia - Online Forum

Wish I could find a kawasaki Dealer that gave a damn about finding old parts......

I need about half a dozen things at the moment but can't seem to find anyone who wants business when it comes to models much over 10 yrs old.

For older bikes with somewhat "skinny" tires I like the Dunlop 501 GT.

Also have had good luck with Avon Roadrunners.

Thanks for all the hellos and welcomes.

I've never worked on that model either just a couple notes:

Careful what you scrape old gasket material off with....steel on aluminium is not generally a good idea.
Some green nylon (scotch, 3M etc) scouring pads work wonders.

Watch the position of dowels and o-rings when you remove the head ...

Obviously the USA or somewhere they drive on the other side.........

Squid alert!

Very cool. Nice work

Thanks for the welcome.

Currently messing around with a Z250 to get it back on the road.

Definitely use the POR-15.

I've done about 4 or 5 tanks over the years with it.

Stay away from the Kreme....I've seen some unfortunate outcomes.

Doesn't seem to like some additives in petrol and it peels.

Never used the KBS

Hello all,

Long time lurker, first time poster.

New to Oz but not new to Motorcyles (Motorbikes).

I'm a bit of a refugee from SOHC4 but I own and have owned a few Z bikes over the years.

Anyways, Just saying hello.
