Henry Abe Performance Products

Post by Gosling1 »

The very first thing I ever bought on e-bay was an original Henry Abe performance air-box to suit a Z900. I figured it would be a good base to build a chopper around..... :wink: (I'm not joking either......)

Henry Abe was a brand of dress-up/performance up-grade stuff that was sold back in the 70's for Japanese bikes, with a bit of emphasis on the good old Z900 kwakka.......

Here are a couple of pictures of the air-filter, it is brand-new, includes new rubber boots from filter to carbies.

Tonight, I just snagged a set of Henry Abe Performance Cooling Fins - these are those chrome dress-up fins you sometimes see on custom 900's........now I have a set for *the Chopper*...... :oops:

These are the Ducks Guts !!!!

quote......Henry Abe cooling fins/dress up kit. Kawasaki Z900 N.O.S.

Very retro/old school mod. Helps direct more air into the cooling fins while also dressing up engine sides. Perfect for modified engines or to dress up an engine that has some damage to fins.

!!!!New Old Stock, never used!!!!

When are you going to find another one of these??!!!



If anyone out there has a set of dress-up finned sidecovers for a Zed, or knows of some (alternator, clutch cover, points cover), I would like to buy them............please........ :lol:
