Wanted: ZX550A cams

Just throwing this out there. I’m potentially interested in getting a set of ZX550A (‘94 GPZ550) camshafts to make the most of the big bore kit install I have planned for my bike. Thanks!

I might have a set . Didnt know they made a 550 in 94 . Where are you located.

I’m not 100% positive on the years they were produced. I’m just going off of  this page  and things like eBay listings for info. It’s the “second performance grind” with the three grooves that I’m after. 

I’m located in Vancouver Washington USA. 

If you would like a bit more bump......

Maybe someday, but those are a LOT more expensive than what I can afford.

ill have to pull the valve cover off and have a look . i have a parts bike I bought that has a rod threw the block. The cams are probably fine. Ill get over to the shed and have a look and see what they are as soon as the mud dries and get back to ya . 

Sounds good, I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks! 

How’s the mud lookin’ over there, riturbo?

ill try and have a look tomorrow . Got a feeling the bike might be too old for the ones your looking for.

Sorry but the cams I have are the old type . Ill keep my eyes out for a set though.

Thanks for checking!

ebaayy has a number of sets out of germany. ~ $130 - $150 total. the info on that gpz page is mostly u.s. models. the rest of the world would have had others. such as the zx400. cmsnl.com has diagrams for some of them. example. zx400c which has the -1059 inlet camshaft. www.cmsnl.com/kawasaki-zx400c2-1985-euro...84/partslist/B8.html . on ebaayy.uk. some zx400A camshafts (unknown part numbers) have the 3 grooves. cmsnl doesn't have those diagrams.
