My good friend Prouty found a dirtbike aluminum Kickstart lever in the mountains of WA. i think we will try to fabricate a modification to the stock splined flange in order to fit the Al kickstart lever.

One of the things i really wanted to keep was the kickstarter, just because, when i started riding electric start was not real...ahhh "manly".

Well, it looks like your 8 weeks has just about passed. Time to get back on that horse now? I bet you have been riding for the past 2 haven't you. :whistle:

Good to see you back on the old project.

Oh Yeah!!

Just ordered the Stator rectifier and the Dyna 2000 from Z-1 Enterprises....

The project is moving again. These items plus a new battery should get me on the track for a test run.

Well the injuries are healed, been dirt bike riding a couple times the real test however was the first track day. I was very nervous until I put the bike inot a small slide at 70 mph, and pulled it up and out of the slide, with no drama. After that it was all good...

Back to the KZ...

I received all the electrical stuff from Z-1 Enterprises, they are the best!!

Now I have the bike all torn apart again, putting in the new Dyna 2000 ignition. So many wires hanging all over the place, I will be glad when this thing is done.

The install is pretty straight forward, it's just the thought of getting into the wiring yet again.

I fancied up a flat pattern for the Brain bracket and hung it behind the battery box.

The old Dyna coils were for the point type ignition, so they had to be replaced with the new coils..

Thanks guys..

I have new question which I also posted in another thread on the electrical section.

Bought a new Ignition switch from Z-1 Enterprises, an EMGO 40-80600.

The new switch has a 6 pin connector, the wiring diagrams show a 4 pin, and the new harness on the bike also has a 4 pin.

The 6 pin ign. connector plugs right into the 4 pin and the wires line up correctly brown white blue, and red to brown white blue and red.

The two extra wires on the switch i do not understand what they are for.

A second White wire, and a green wire with a red stripe.

Ideas????

Buy 4 wires, get 2 free! :laugh: I've heard of these 2 versions before....hopefully somebody will chime in with an explanation. Might be OK as is but I'd hate to try it before hearing that it's OK. You could always call Jeff...he probably knows what's up with that issue.

I think you just plug it in and go. I stole this little tidbit from Z1E's website:

Ignition Switch with 2 keys - KZ650 KZ750 KZ900 KZ1000 Z1
EM40-80600

Equivalent to OEM: 27005-086 27005-042 27005-092 - 27019-003 -

Replacement Ignition Switch for Kawasaki KZ650B/C/D KZ750B KZ750G Z1 KZ900 KZ1000A-A3/B/C/D 1976 KZ400D3. Fits both 4-pin and 6-pin connector blocks.


Notice what that last line says? If it were me, I would make sure the wire colors match, and maybe call Jeff to confirm function. I wouldn't blame you for being cautious of electrical stuff, given your battery issue.

EDIT: Lookin' good on the Monster. Nice to see you back on two wheels. Also, good work on the Dyna mount. Someone told me that they don't like vibes too much. You might consider putting a rubber pad in there to help dampen that a little.
