Going down the road... Naked...

Can someone please point me in the right direction (Forum or otherwise)
I'm contemplating turning my ZXR 750 (1994) into a naked sports bike.
Is there anywhere where I can get a list of available parts, parts I'll need etc. from around the Melbourne area.

Any help would be grande.
Cheers

Just a suggestion...
The main time of year that thermostats start to bugger up are at the change from summer and to autumn.
You might want to take out your thermostat and dunk it in some boiling water, just to make sure its opening all the way.

That will also cause your symptoms.
Cheers

The street fighter look

[in reference to a 1994 zxr750]

A couple of weeks ago, some moron pushed my bike over at work. To make matters worse, the same person kicked all the indicators off, and jumped on the overturned bike a couple of time, just to rub it in.

Thanks.

Anyway, since all the fairings are almost ready for ...

I've seen this problem a lot with people modifying old cars. The cheapest and easiest solution is to use the bulbs in series with the led indicators. What car guys do is have the bulbs wired up in series, but in the boot/bonnet covered with black masking tape.

For your bike, you could tuck the ...

Anyone Know A Good Wrecker Near Richmond Vic?

A guess the topic post says it all. For the first time since I've owned my Kawa ZXR750 (1994), I left it at work last night.

As you can guess, some F-wit pushed it over and now the whole thing is in tatters. So I need a good wrecker so I can quickly get my pride back on the road.

Any help would be ...

[MEL] Snapped Exhaust Bracket

Alrighty then. I have a 1994 ZXR750L with stock headers (I believe) and a bolt on Staintune can. The problem I'm having is, that the bracket connecting the can to under the rear foot peg has snapped due to fatigue.

Now, I've taken it to Hones in Box Hill, and they've told me that the best option is ...

Indicator knob

In reference to a Kawa ZXR 750 (1994 M series)

Does anyone know where I can get the little bit of plastic that sits on the end of the indicator switch stalk? I've lost mine somewhere along the way, and now every time I go to turn my indicators off, I get e sharp pain from the metal sticking into my ...

New Front Tyre

Does anyone know/recommend a good place to get my front tyre replaced around Richmond/Melbourne CBD?

I'd rather use some of your knowledge than fish around only to be dudded.
Thanks for the help

Erratic Engine Idle on ZXR 750

Exactly what the subject heading says. I have a 1994 ZXR 750, and the engine idle is very temperamental. When the engine is first started, the idle is fine. When the engine has warmed up, the idle hangs at around 2500rpm plus or minus 500rpm. When the thermo switch clicks the fan on, the idle ...
