Hey all,
I'm just about finished rebuilding my '86 Z, again. I actually rebuilt it to about 80% 3 years ago, after sitting in my shed for 12 years. Unfortunately after putting about 6hrs on the rebuilt engine, the crank broke. Does anyone know of a front brake caliper that would mount to the forks without too much fuss? If not I will have to rebuild it. I also need to do something about the master cylinder. The diaphram is gone.
I bought the Z back in '86 ($600) from the original owner who barely rode the thing. He had put a kit on it from White Brothers (pipe, silencer twist throttle and I believe a 36mm mikuni flatslide carb). Is anyone familiar with this?
Anyhow, the engine is in the shop being totally rebuilt and I'm also having the forks rebuilt with progressive springs put in. I'll post some pics soon. Great site by the way
peace
Gary
