Those shocks look awesome. Would you mind sharing the details on them?

I am not knocking the Dyna 200 but I believe a guy should have options

Dyna200 from Z1E $425
DDK2-1C - The Dyna 2000 electronic ignition kit with coils for Kawasaki Z1, KZ900, KZ1000, & KZ1100 4 cylinder motorcycles is a microprocessor controlled ignition with adjustable dual crank sensors. This system provides simple switch settings to control multiple ignition advance or retard modes and rev limits.

* This ignition can be installed on ZX & ZN1100's by utilizing the inner ignition cover and related parts from a "J" model engine. Installation would require the following:
14090-1420 Cover, Engine Cover,
11061-1129 Gasket, RH Engine Cover
92049-1033 Seal Oil, SC32487.
Call us to order.

NEW: Dynatek has just redesigned the Dyna 2000's to be programmable.
SEE BELOW for the Curvemaker programming kit - now available as an option for those wanting to reprogram their Dyna 2000. The Curvemaker kit includes the software and wiring harness to connect to a PC serial port, and will allow custom advance / retard curves and rev-limits. Reprogramming should only be done by experienced engine builders to avoid engine damage.
Some of the features include:
Fully Static Timeable.
Independent 1/4 & 2/3 timing,
static timing light,
five different advance curves,
test mode,
4 different retard modes (great for turbos),
safety interlock input,
broad range rev limiter,
digital tach output,
high energy,
easy mounting,
complete wiring harness.

Includes a pair of DC4-1 2.2 ohm dual output coils. Wires sold separately (see below).
The Dyna 2000 will work in conjunction with the Dyna Shift Light utilizing one of two configurations:
1.) Use in conjunction with the Dyna Shift Minder kit and conveniently control the shift light with a series of dip-switch settings.
2.) Use the Dyna Shift Light with the Dyna Programming kit for more precision fine-tuning using a laptop or PC.

C5 ignition $479
JK-9004
KAWASAKI KZ900 KZ1000 KZ1100
$479

No modifications needed. This kit comes with adapter plate and even fits Police models by trimming the lower slot.


Give your KZ a timing curve and coil voltage it deserves!
Speed demons know the KZ engine is one of the world's best starting points for a drag or road racing bike. Our ignition kit works great for street or strip, and you can make your own curves with the optional Programmer Kit.

Kit fits KZ900 KZ1000 KZ1000P (Police) and KZ1100 from 1973-1985 and Police models up to 1998.


We provide:
Multiple spark technology providing three (3) sparks per compression stroke
Twin optical beam triggers to eliminate timing variations.
Four ignition maps provided to retard timing based on your load and fuel quality.
Section Bobbin coils rated over 100,000 volts
Mounting hardware and color instructions.

I am not sure about the Dyna200 but the C5 eliminates mechanical advance and it will not power the coils until it detects crank movement. I have it and love it.

They are Bitubo WMT series shocks. They are fully adjustable and sprung and valved for your weight.

I order the two pair I bought with chrome springs. Hard anodized bodies and are comparable to an Ohlins. ZRX owners association has done two group buys that I took part in. These are for the KZ. I had custom decals made up for them as well to replace the red factory ones.

Awesome, thanks for the info!

Ape/schnitz/fast by gast are all good, fast by gast maybe a little better of the 3 but noting to make bets over. Over shift bushing and billet 2nd not necessary either, sreet bike doesn't get enough traction or put that much stress on 2nd gear. I know little tire bar slick bikes that's been running for years without it.

Les

Les, do you know anything about this place for trans back cutting ?

they sound reasonable , & 100% guaranty

Google found this....

There's your guy.....

Cory

Thanks Cory, I was just wondering if they did quality work, or not, because Les didn't mention them, maybe he knows something we don't, about them, because they sound more reasonably priced than the others he mentioned
Pete

Well he technically is more expensive. The $115 is just for second gear alone according to his site. $360 is for the whole gear set.

Cory

So paint should be ready in about a week and a half.......frame and all the big parts are at the powdercoater and should be done in about two weeks. So I had one quick thing to check....

Getting closer.......

Very cool badges! I bet you could make a few bucks marketing them. Ed

Killer badges...what's the story on those?

I designed them and horse traded making a custom motorcycle harness to adapt an ignition to a ZL900 in exchange for him doing th CAD work for these badges. I was test fitting them to ensure fitment before he sends me the file to have them CNC'd out of brass stock.
