Just before Christmas I finally got the tank, fender, tail and covers back from the paint shop. New solid black (Saab 170) with 6 layers of clear coat, 3 before decals then 3 after. I am very pleased by how it turned out:
Also got a new snorkel and some fasteners from CMSNL that I installed.
-20c now... wish it was spring already so I can take a long ride and just listen to the inline 4!

I bought them on eBay from a UK company called classicmotorcycledecals2:
Edit: tried to post a link here but I can't get it to work, search: "KAWASAKI Z1000J Z1000J2 COMPLETE RESTORATION DECAL SET BLACK MODEL"
Edit2: Z1000J decals on eBay
The paint shop commented that they were a bit difficult to apply. I don't know if it was just a way to bump the price tag...They came out nice at least!
