Aftermarket VM 28 Float bowl drain plugs, ( Z1 + Z1A ONLY)
Yesterday 01:44 - Yesterday 04:12
For anyone who might still need these drain plugs for their Z1:
I still have 5 float bowl drain plugs for the early VM28 Mikuni of the Z1 and early Z1A models.
17 mm hex with M18x1 thread.
I made these screws years ago with quite a lot of effort (turning and milling).(( It was pretty sure unrentable to made this, so i´ve stopped after made about 15 of them
Made of aluminum!
If you're interested: All 5 units for € 100 plus shipping....Or 33,- each + shipping...but sell them isn´t much important,
better trade in for Z1000 Parts.. p.e..original Z1, or z900, or z1000 Ducktail with no cracks or damages, ( must not be in orig. paint), or 4 units x Keyster carb kits...make just an offer

Thanks Clay,
Yes, it was basically way too much work on those things. That only makes sense if you need them for your own bike. Selling them commercially is pointless work; it takes way too much time.....Or you have a fullyfull automatic CNC-milling and turning 5 axle-machine, and 1000 customers who will sure need them
......but I just wanted to have done it about 10 years ago
...sometimes it is the challenge, how to made it, or how is it possible...am I capable of making something like this.....?!
