    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Kz 650b1..austin moto fest auction bike

Partsoutlaw doesnt have Kawi fiches. Who does? I will at some point need them and a supplier.
 
Partsfish is the go to place for Kawi parts fiches. I will soon be starting a new thread ( maybe ) about the progress since this is now my bike. Frank Z has boxed up the body work and it will be here by the end of the week. Now the rest of the story is about to be written.
 
Took the tailpiece / seat trim up to my buddys paint supply store he manages and he took the scanner to the area under where the seat had protected it from sun damages. Scan came back as Honda Candy Ruby Red. So he mixed up a sample and put it in an aerosol can so we could do a test shot along side the unfaded original paint.

Let it flash a good half hour and took it outside in the direct bright sunlight...as spot on as anyone could ask for in my opinion. So, we now have a viable color to shoot it with. Baby steps...but one step of forward progress!!!!
 
Same fiches as are on Partsfish far as I can tell.

The Kawasaki.com fishe was different from any other I've seen. There was a lookup for "where used" and supercession. Awesome resource before Kawasaki pulled it. Kawasaki is discontinuing lots of older parts so that must be why they don't host the older fishe anymore.
 
Really well done. I wouldn't have tried to salvage those r/h and l/h switches myself. But you're doing all this incredibly cheaply. Great job.
 
Had to revisit this thread. Just refreshing the memory on her journeys twists and turns. Just a few more weeks till she rolls down the road again under full steam !!!

How long before you put it into the auction and lose your a$$ on it? ROTFLMAO! Should have done a Z1, people actually WANT them. :)
 
hes just doing what daddy said Ed..pick 1 thing and do it well. Being a condecending smartazz is his thing. So you must be as useless as me too...you wasted all that time and talent on a 750!!!
 
Heck of a journey it's been. The baby Z is actually quite desirable these days, esp. with the "NY Steak" models in short supply. Good work Chuck; look forward to seeing her on the road.

I was going to give it a little more thought but I decided to give up......NY Steak?
