1981 KAWASAKI KZ1000 J EXHAUST DAMPERS was created by aquaholic
Hey folks, hopefully someone can help me. I placed an add in the wanted section for some rubber dampers PN 92075-1042. They aren't available anywhere in the US. One person gave me a Swedish website that has them and if I have to go that way I will. These dampers are the ones for the exhaust system where it mounts to the middle if the frame. If anyone has some, I need 4. If someone has one that could send me the measurements, ID, OD and thickness it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and as always, ride safe. Jon

Aquaholic, dont get fooled by www.partssweden.se .
They show positive inventory but dont have any inventory of their own. I have bought from them and found my self waiting forever while they try to source discontinued parts. Sure they will send you the stuff they can find, but you already know they are hard to find.
So stay away, they are a total discrace to the country!
I bet they can't assemble an IKEA item, dont drink Aquavit and probably dont even take a fika break. They are total losers.

Wow, that's really odd! I bought some very rare new old stock 1977 KZ650-C1 parts, including front fork legs, from them a while back and received perfect items very quickly. Believe me when I tell you that they had all the parts I ordered in stock. I was really happy with their prices and service. They were not losers at all; in fact, they provided great service and perfect products at very reasonable prices. I wonder what changed? Ed

Then you were lucky Ed.
I ordered a swingarm bolt and and a rear light lens for my R1. After several calls and a month and a half the lens showed up and then being a cheep rip-off.
If you want Aquaholic I can call them and ask if they have it on the shelf?

Thanks Scuba, I do appreciate your offer to call them. I would be just as happy with some measurements so I could make my own lol. I tend to be a "make it myself kind of guy" lol Someone, somewhere has to have one they could measure for me and since the part is "No longer available", maybe it will help out others with the same issue. Thanks again to both of you for taking the time to reply. Be well, Jon

Hey Steve, Hope you are well. I don't have a picture other than the Partzilla exhaust system lol. There are 2 rubber dampers on each side with a metal sleeve that goes thru it. I have ordered the metal sleeves and bolts but the dampers are no where to be found on the web. These are where the exhaust mounts to the frame between the engine and the rear mount. the bolt mounts to the frame straight up from the bottom. I have the rear ones but they are different. The P/N is 92075-1042 and I can't seem to even find a picture of that lol. If anyone has one PLEASE send me the measurements. Thanks again Steve

Good on you Jon.
I tried calling them today just for the fx€k of it. But ended up I a phone loop that eventually told me that they didn't have time to take my call.
Bet they don't eat pickled herring either. . . .

Hey Scirocco, thanks for your reply. Do you have one of those dampers that you could measure for me please. I need the inside and outside dimension as well as the size of the hole. If you have some that you would like to sell or know where I can get them it would be much appreciated. Thanks again and be well, Jon
