            <description><![CDATA[ Hallo an alle Freunde der eckigen Baureihe,<br />
es ist schon wieder lange her seit dem letzten Treffen der eckigen Bikes.<br />
Die Z1000R 1 wird im nächsten Jahr 30 Jahre alt, ich denke das wäre ein<br />
wunderbarer Anlass zum Feiern. Da es schon genügend Z-Treffen gibt, stelle<br />
ich mir ein kleines, feines Zusammenkommen mit unseren Lieblings-Bikes vor.<br />
Ich denke ein Wochenende mit Pension oder Hotel, gemeinsame Ausfahrt,<br />
ein bischen Quasseln und Staunen wäre schon geil. Bei der Organsisation und<br />
möglicher Location haben wir schon einige Ideen, aber wir möchten zunächst mal<br />
Eure Vorschläge und Meinungen hören. Das Treffen sollte im Mai/June 2012<br />
stattfinden. Wir würden uns über Eure Rückmeldung und Meinungen sehr freuen.<br />
Wir können uns hier im Forum austauschen oder auch sehr gerne telefonieren.<br />
Danke im Voraus für zahlreiche Rückmeldungen.<br />
Tel. 02327/77687 oder Mobil 0163/1907607<br />
Gruss,<br />
Martina/Dietmar]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Hello<br />
<br />
Perhaps someone could advise me. I'm having some problems with original efi system. Works well but it's almost impossible to start when cold. I have extra set of Mikuni 34mm flatslides which I have never tested on my bike. The engine is from -84 GPZ and bored to 1200cc. Runs fine with original efi but I don't want to play with it anymore. What do you suggest? and how about performance any difference between efi or carbs..<br />
<br />
Thanks for helping..<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Hey guys,<br />
<br />
I recently bought a 1983 ELR that has some damage due to the original owner crashing the bike. <br />
<br />
I am having some difficulty locating some parts and would like to see if any of you guys can help me out.<br />
<br />
This is a US version ELR and when the bike was wrecked the engine head and Cylinder block was damaged and broke off some of the fins. The bike still runs but I would like to replace them for cosmetic purposes.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help me out with a proper replacement. Part numbers do not help me out much, and I am hoping that someone has dealt with this situation before. I am also hoping to find a possible replacement that is the same but painted silver and that is why I can't find a link through any part numbers.<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

            <title>KZ1000R emblem -&quot;R&quot; colors? (4 replies)</title>

            <description><![CDATA[ Can anyone tell me what is the difference with KZ1000R emblem on the side covers.  My ELR has the emblem with the American flag - I believe this is because it is a European model?  I have also aquired the stock ELR 1000 emblems with the &quot;R&quot; in Red, one in black, and have seen one where the &quot;R&quot; is blue.<br />
<br />
Just curious.<br />
<br />
Thanks  Mike]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Hey Folks,<br />
<br />
Maybe I'm not  asking pure Greenie questions, but, What are the advantages of building with a J-motor as opposed to the Z1 e motor .I remenber some talk back when I had The Z1s that the new generation Mk11 &amp; to some extent  the J model were not as&quot; fool proof&quot;.If i am offending  anyone please excuse my waver,it's just that I have no freinds at this time that are moto inclined and none that could even name more than one or two bikes.<br />
I'm building a z of some sort this spring and want to try a j- motored bike this time,any tips or heads ups would be great <br />
Peace          Craig]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ <br />
I've found a '82 model Z1000R at a resonable price here in Italy. Any part seems to be original except for a 4 into 1 marving exhaust. It have 60.000 km on the odometer and this scares me a bit. Could it be a problem? Z1000R engines have any particular hidden problems?  a price around 1500â‚¬ could be considered as a good price?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance for your answers and excuse me for my english<br />
<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I'm going to purchase a kawasaki next spring and make a road bike for pleasure/ fast riding.When I was a young man I had a Z1 that had it's frame  braced  prior to my buying/riding it.It was my second big kawi and little did i know, it ended up handling better than the next 5 or six that i've owend. The scarriest by far being a Z1r,It scared the people that I rode with,It was kind of funny and quite the badge of bravery, I could count on no riders sneaking behind on tight corners after they had seen the awsome tank slappers this bike could do with allmost no warning.There was a couple of times after rides where the bike was the topic.    Now the question. I want to try building on the J model motor cycle this time. I care nothing about matching vins or what the true kawi purests will think. I just want to  work towards a fun clean looking well working kawi.Can the 1982 ltd 1000 frame accept a front end/ or forks from another model /s to correct leadind axle ? Do the 1982 ltd and 1000j frame differ?How???? Can i build a road racer from the 82 ltd or should I wait and save$ for the 1000j?gpz1100?- They are rare in the u.s, and are more for keeping &quot;pretty&quot;.The 82 ltds seem more plentiful on e-bay.I am going to   do a bunch of changes any way so can I start with the ltd frame?I had a 1978 ltd 1000 zmodel that i could corner on really well.header shocks tires rearsets etc... so why not a bad ass 1982/ framed-motored bike?]]></description>
