That's awesome Dave, great to hear.

Done

I'd be more than happy to chip in too.

I'd be sad to see it go as I still pop in to see what's happening in the wonderful world of Kawasaki in Oz but also understand that it would he hard to justify the cost based on the lack of activity. I guess that doesn't really help answer your question at all does it other than knowing I'm a fence ...

The C model carbs are spaced differently compared with the B model. The B model are equispaced whereas the C model aren't, wider between cylinders 2 & 3 compared to 1 & 2 and 3 & 4(see images below). The airbox fitment might be an issue too. They are essentially the same carb though, i.e. 40mm CVK ...

Awesome, sound like you got yourself a winner.

Great pic that one.

Don't these already have a ramp type slipper ? You got me wondering now, will have to check this out. Pretty happy with the one in the zx7

Yeah they do but I read they're not that effective as a slipper with the factory settings(too stiff) and some of the steel plates need to ...

ha ha Kev, you have reminded me of a highside I had coming over the flip flop at Oran Park on a wet/dry track :shock: :oops:

look forward to the pics

Ouch, that's not a great place to highside. I had a nasty one coming out of turn 3 hairpin but unfortunately no photos of that one.

Are you going ...

Thanks Kev

Am not sure about the cams just yet but will pm you if I change my mind. It is only that the marks on the lobes don't really make sense as the rest of the motor seems ok but will ponder this some more.

I probably won't worry too much about engine mods other than the usual as I doubt I ...

Welcome aboard. I'll keep an eye out for you around the Gong.

Thanks Kev and Daisy

Have been doing a fair bit of research and am discovering the b model is fairly unique.

Have pulled the head and was pleasantly surprised at how clean she is. Everything in the top end seems to be ok, clearances were good and cams are well within specs too but there are a ...

Couple of questions am hoping I can get some advice on

1. I am stripping the motor down and thought I would get into the gearbox while I was at it. After some research I see that some of the poms have been putting 03 - 09 z1000 gearboxes into zx9s C - E models. Anyone here had a crack at this? Is ...

Hey All

I just picked up a zx9 b motor for the zx7 p4. I think it is a b3 motor but not real sure, fuck I dont even know if this thing runs yet.

I have a bit of info on the fit up and that looks fairly straight forward.

I have the 9's carbs but they are the restricted jobbies so will get that ...

You certainly picked an exciting race to attend. Nice one.

I'm in so put me down for one and happy with any slogan.
