its all good mate, been watching and helping out old mate with a bit of advice here & there since this bike was first advertised .....the transformation from what it *was* then, to what it *is* now though.......is just sensational.No doubt about it, the turnaround time has been really quick:shock: , I think the whole package has come together really well, and now Dave is out there riding it around up in sunny Qld !! the lucky bugger......well done mate, you have a very nice addition to your fleet now.

Received the Kerker black meg system today from the USA.
But I think I've purchased the wrong system for my bike.
It fits up hard against the oil filter bolt, had to remove the center stand and doesn't seem to line up with the rear mounting bracket.
Its my fault as the seller did state "kawasaki kz 1000 lawson replica kerker exhaust 1977-83" and the bit I missed "if you need a kerker for a different bike just ask i have allot of different pipes in stock."
So its up for sale......
Still waiting on confirmation of the correct part # of the system I have but think it will fit........
KZ1000 J 81....KZ1000 LTD 81...GPZ1100 81... KZ1000 KR 81..
Is there any interest before I put it on ebay??? $600 plus post....cost me $700.
