I couldn't be happier. My father-in-law just gave me a 1976 kz900 b ltd.
Must be NICE!!! Wish MY future in-laws (hmmm...maybe OUTLAWS would be better term!!??) was that cool!
It runs and it seems to be in ok shape but I have many questions. There is an aftermarket oil cooler, but it seems to be plummed poorly. Would like to know how to do it properly and who makes a good one.
See
www.oldkawman.com. Navigate to OIL COOLER article. Good step-by-step 'structions there.
The brake light works when you use the foot or rear brake but not when I apply the front brakes, is this how it is supposed to be? If it is not what could be wrong or missing?
Answered in previous replys
The rear tire seems to be off center ever so slightly, but enough to notice. How do I return it to center and how much torque should I put on the axle bolts?
What EXACTLY do you mean "seems to be off center ever so slightly, but enough to notice"???.
Sorry I haven't taken any pictures yet, I will post some soon.
SHAME on you....50 lashes with dirty rag mop!! (J/K....
I also need tach and speedo cables, where should I go to get a good deal? Also wondering where to get a new kz900 ltd side emblem, without paying Kawasaki my first born if possible.
Cables....check out
www.z1enterprises.com,
www.redlinecycle.com, or
www.oldbikebarn.com. Emblem, check redlinecycle.com or z1enterprises.com
Oh yeah, I am looking for a set of the original 1976 Kawasaki Kz900 manual
Good Luck!
...and the supplement Kz900 ltd manual, I would love to purchase, but would like to lease them for about a week to ten days to scan and put on cd, would be willing to distribute them for the cost of the cd's and shipping to anyone here who would like them. I let a supplement slip by on Ebay the other day but have yet to see the actual Kawi manual anywhere.
Hmmmmm....not real sure....but that SOUNDS like possible copyright infringement....
try getting a Clymer manual for 19??-1976 KZ900-1000. Should be all ya need in there.
Thank you again for all of your help and support.
No problem man...this is a GREAT site for info/help/advise. And the other guys aint kidding about pics!!!! Post soon as ya can!
