Z1-KZ Slider Clutch Info

Looking for a used slider clutch for a KZ900 drag bike engine.
What is the going price?
What can I expect?
Not in any hurry, I can wait!
Don't want to spend $$ on new one.
Any opinions?

Thanks.

keep an eye out on dragbike.coms classified section, they come up from time to time

Be careful when looking at one. Look at the hat to see what shape it's in. Sometimes a bolt, etc. gets loose and tears them up. Check to be sure the bolts that hold the hat on are in good shape. Seems to be a weak point with them. I'm no expert on them by any means but these are just some things I have read about or seen. You know any weak points or things in particular to look for Timebomb?

i try to stay away from sliders my self usally they are being sold for a reason this would be one item if i was looking for that i'd probably buy new. save your self a bunch of grief and expense in the long run.

I've seen them for $500-750 -like Tim posted keep an eye on dragbike.com classifieds.Older sliders have 6 mm. studs and need to be updated to 8mm.- good way to identify them is the cover has an oil filler cap threaded into it as an inspection port.The 6mm. studs inevitably pull out or break.I broke 2 and as posted it did make a mess of the hat and some of the weights.

Take a good look at the inner basket and the inside of the slider basket for wear. Good idea to check the threads on the basket & the small allen bolts that secure the hat to the slider basket.Check the outside of the slider basket for wear marks- not everyone remembers to clearance the cases - if it wobbles enough to hit the cases you'll see the "machining"

I bought my slider very gently used and knew the bike and the shop it came from originally.If you buy a slider get the shim kit from MTC to set the air gap properly.

Thanks, great tips! Will watch for awhile.
Al Fletcher from Lancaster advised me on this also!
I just got a bad back,and neck, and slider is the way to go!
Thanks!
