I'm in the process of rebuilding my 81 kz, I just got a price for some o-rings at the dealer, $6.00 to $7.00 for a 89 cent part. What are you guys doing to...
Hi, I put the zx-11 cam chain tentioner in and it went in about 15 clicks, the timing chain also make a loud spinning noise. I think the chain needs to be...
Hi, Did you pull the valve cover to examine the idler gear? I think that idler gear will wear out before the chain will. It may be the added tension from the...
Hi, Do you think the idler gear would allow the tentioner to go in so many clicks? But it is worth looking at. If I need to can I replace the gears without...
Kenton, These bikes are well worth the effort to keep them on the road. There is just no other motorcycle that can compare to the KZ1300. The tensioner going...

I use an iQue3600 from Garmin is a Palm + GPS. You also can a buy a cradle to stick it to the windshield and it goes connected to a standard cigarette lighter...
as far as I know, you will have to pull out the cilinder head to replace any, the chain, the gear, etc etc not an easy job regards, Horacio Kenton Van Hise...
Hi Dave, Thanks for all the info, I will start looking for these parts and see what I can do. I will have to make the time to do it since you are right this...
HI Kenton, I would wait on buying the cam chain until I was absolutely sure thats a problem. The gear is not a problem. If you pull the head you might check...
Oops, when I said the gear is not a problem I meant price wise. It is likely that the gear has failed but, you should pull the valve cover and shine a light...
Hi Vance, David replyed to me and said the gear is the one that has gone bad. He said the chain should last about 100,000 miles. So I have a few parts to...
Hi David, I was looking at the site and since I need the two rubber, guide rollers (92075-232), do you still have a couple of these that I could buy? If so...

Hi I live in Johannesburg South Africa and we get very hot in summer. My Z1300 starts overheating is you ride for any length of time over 140km/h. I am going...
An oversize custom radiator did the trick. Do not spend your time and money on the fan. This will not fix your problem. It may help slightly but pretty ...
Just curious. Does your bikes temperature needle stay in the white or does it creep outside the white? Does this happen when the bike is sitting at an idle or...
hi Vance, this is my normal operational range, never lower or higer, (summer or winter) Once, running low on coolant (ny fault), the neddle pass a litle the...
Mike, I do not think the fan is going to help here as it is supposed to knock out temp spikes at low speed when natural flow across the radiator is at minimum....
exactly no big changes, but my fan is manual so I cant forget to turn it on at the moment the idle starts to moving towards the red line regards, Horacio Lic....
Hi I have had the radiator re-conditioned so thats good. Why would the thermostat cause the problem? rhahn57 <rick_hahn@...> wrote: Mike, I do not think...
Hi If I am in traffic the needle will move quickly to the white line that preceeds the red mark. Once you move off on a bit of an open road it comes down to...
Mike, If it is not opening all the way at max temp it would impede coolant flow through the radiator and reduce radiator performance. I have seen this problem...
Hi Larry I guess you have done this. So the oversize radiator has the same mounting holes but its just 3" wider on each side??. By 3 row do you mean that the...
... Did you bleed the air out of the system? When I picked up my KZ1300 I had a nice ride of 1,000 miles to return home. It had sat idle for many years and...
Hi Ok, I will see if I can find a new one and and try that. Thanks for the help Regards Mike rhahn57 <rick_hahn@...> wrote: Mike, If it is not opening...
