Dear Group, I need a little help here. On a KZ 1300 that I got ( Non running ) I have pulled the carbs off and found tree different sized holes on the needle...

if I remember correctly the stock jet size was stamped 102?...
sure I'll check one, Alex from New Zealand subbed hole size on my once after asking they worked just fine. As long as the float level is adjusted it wouldn't...
I checked four valves and the ones I have are all stamped 2.5 I am guessing that is the hole size in mm? Gary Subject: RE: [kz1300] three different sized holes...
I have my "refurbished " 1300 on the road for 2 weeks now. Just a few niggly things to work on . I am using 1980 LTd 1100 coils and replaced the plugs with...
I just installed the coils from a 1990 Buick Regal. The 1300 kawaski web site said that they would work and that it had 2.5 ohms. I found out that the...
Your compression numbers are not good but not uncommon for a bike that has sat a while. SOmetimes the numbers will improve as the rings loosen up. If it's...
Dear Group, Often in the motorcycle shop where I work we permanently dissable the crankcase ventilation into the head by connecting the two hoses together that...

What about going even further and blocking the passages from the exhaust that lead up to the reed valves wouldn't this reduce heat transfer from the exhaust to...
I looked in the bible and its an air injection system. If the reeds aren't in good shpe it can be useful to defeat it and it may make the engine overall run...
If I were to disconnect the system I'd block off each port with a plug / cap and make sure it's high temp resistant, that's exhaust gas lurking in there. On a...
Thanks Gary, I know what you mean about the clamps, I had the same thing happen when I fitted EGR ported heads onto my 914 ... From: Gary <goetz@...> ...

check out this nice custom 79 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kawasaki-kz1300-A-Kawasaki-KZ1300-kz1300- ...
I lucked out when I bought an unidentified gas tank off of eBay awhile ago. I think the tank is of an 1100 spector 80's vintage. Anyway what the luck was is...
O.K. guys, here's a question for all you electrical boffins out there; I'm currently customising my '84 ZG & at the moment re-wiring at the front end. I...
Gary it is off an either late 70's or early 80's 750 Kaw. I will try to look it up further for you. I have 1 on both my kz's and they work great. They have...
Is this zg a fuel injected bike? If so since the KZ is the carb model, then you have a computer. Even on the kz you have the ignitor. The purpose of the diode...
Thanks Larry, that clears things up for me, I was following the feed to & from the diode & just couldn't fathom it's purpose. Yes it's the fuel injected...
The reason for the diodes (there are two, one on the parking light, one on the taillight) in this instance is because the Main (under seat) switch has a...
unless you have the fuel injected model with the computer which he did have. The diode also keeps the voltage from spiking the computer. lc the deerslayer...
Well you've got me there, I don't have a diagram for the fuely model. What would cause a spike on a minor lighting circuit? Are the little buggers on every...
Here is the deal. ON the computer it is very dependant on 5 volts to operate the computer. 6 volts can damage the circuitry. When a circuit collapses as in...
Yes, I'm getting rid of the main switch. The seat unit I'm fitting means that the wiring will have to be minimised & I never used that switch anyway. Here's...
I do not use the main switch either. I just never removed it. But you are wrong about your math. A battery is rated by the chemistry relationship and amount of...
I think he said; You are right, just get a battery with comparable cranking amps. The orange / green wires (there is one coming from the ignition switch...
