ebay is the best bet. I checked the airtech site and Moto Tumbi sites - neither of them do z650 stuff...

No worries mate. They do occasionally pop up locally, so still keep your eyes open, and make sure you don't get stung by shipping fees on the US stuff.

Is it a roundish one like a Z9 or a squarish one? (Late model.) If it is a squarish one I might have one to suit. I have a Z440 one, which might be similar or the same. :)

the 650 ducktail is not really roundish or square ? It has a really nice taper to the rear section, unlike the round lines of the early 9, and very much unlike the square box-like ducktails of the later Z1000 Mk2 and z750. Even the little z500 had a square-profile ducktail...

I reckon the z650 ducktail is probably one of the best of the lot...... :kuda:
