Dutch 1977 Z1000 Build

Hey Wiers beautiful bike!!

I just read all thread in one go and I have to say that just as the other threads motivate you to start and complete your project, in a same manner your thread motivates guys like me starting with our own projects so thank you for the follow up.

I have a question related to the cooler, I read somewhere that if you run a stock motor, the cooler could have some negative effects on the bike.

Have you experience any setbacks or bad points related to the cooler?

Additional could you tell me how much more oil does your motor take with the cooler?

 

Sorry for the late reaction but I have been busy lately and did not get any notification about your post.
I did not find anything negative about the cooler on my bike but it does not get that hot in the Netherlands.
The cooler is upside down so there will always be a little bit oil in it.
I filled it up, run the engine a couple of times and filled it up till it was oke in the looking glass.
In a few weeks I wil be refreshing the oil and measure how much will come out, so I know how much I have to put back in.
 

The whole build was great to read through. Bike looks stellar. What seat is that?

Thanks,
I do not know, the seat was on the bike when I bought it.
It sit a but harsh but looks great.
