Nice - looks like an early 900 or 1000 fitted up with a J head for the bigger valves. The kickstarter gives it away as an early motor....

better get back on-topic here, massive hijack of a 750 thread :lol: will dig up some info on that igniter unit, I am pretty sure the GT750 igniter is the same ...

As Ninjainoz said its hard when we carn't see or hear the problem, if you can pictures of how the carby vent routing on your bike. You can only go through the basics 1st. Hopefully it's something simple I sure someone will help point you in the right direction.
Cheers Rob.

I must say that I too am starting to think along the lines of the dirt track version as well with the spare frame and engine i have and that paint does set it off.
Love it.
Rob.

....Definitely the black one; isn't the blue your basic '80 Z750E (at least, I think that's the model number) ?....

the black one ;) - well all is not as it seems. That bike is also (well, was) a bog-stock 1981 Z750E. I got it as a wreck and knocked it back together in about 3 weeks - this was ...

Mitchell, can you see the hoses that come from the top these carbuators are the ones needed to run to airbox.
Cheers Rob.

Mitchell, i have some 96 carbs check photo out to see the hoses I'm talking about.
Cheers Rob.

Mitchell, i don't if it's the same with the 94 as the 96 but when you took off the anti pollution crap there's two lines that run between no's 1,2 and3,4 from the carburators to the air box do you still have these connected? They need this to balance airbox float bowl pressure. Hope it's simple :D ...

G'day Eastoe, my memory v's workshop manual "I know what I'd trust" :lol: :lol: I know then i've got something wrong somewhere then, it's quite awhile ago now. Another thing I don't recall is if the head was shaved at all, it was still using standard CV carbies.
Found a picture of it towards the end ...

I think the sidecovers use the same mounting points, so you should be able to use either E or L model sidecovers. I have 2 E model 750's but now you have identified that other ID stamp on the compliance plate - will check mine to confirm......

The later GPz cams had same timing and lift, but had ...

Hmmm, very interesting Kev that linkage I have performed marginally better than your stock H one in the best position of the 2 you used in the comparison.
I'd be very interested in comparing the J linkage on my bike bike. Might have to hunt around and try to pick one up to do that. Great work Kev ...

Thanks for your reply Gosling. Maybe I should've put up a photo of the other to show what was confusing me. I know all the E and L's frame and engine no's go something like kz750e-********. What got me is the area circled in the photo's, I have a tank and all plastics for a 1981 kz750 E2 floating ...

I have a frame I'm trying to work out for a long term project I have. Am I correct in that it's a kz750 L1? Were both bikes E & L available here in 81 as they have only very minor differences. Which one was classed as the sporter bike out of the two as opposed to the H.
With my 1980 E1 I didn't have ...

Thanks Maddog, shouldn't be too much longer I hope..as always waiting on parts.

Looking good Rob. Have you seen this page about relocating the coils on a 91-95, might be just what you are after.

Thanks Kev, I have thought about it, but as I have that alloy race tank it sits lower in that space & the ...

Thanks Troy, the centre's are 75 mm for the J I think your after 65mm for the H2 going by the centre measurement on my H1. The company was a ebay seller called racesuppliesdirect one word ...
