Using this logic I should avoid A full Dyna set up, as its after market and not OEM. If Jeff at Z1 sells it, I have a little more faith in the product than this, as he has never stroked me before.

Don't mean to always be negative, but I'm afraid aftermarket parts just plain stink most the time. I didn't get this great attitude I have without many years of wonderful practice using the stuff and not just on Kawasaki either, here at work where I'm an electronic tech, I just cringe everytime I can't buy factory parts because I know many hours are going to be wasted making these "exact replacements" work.

It's not what the bikes worth, it's what it's worth to you! I've owned mine for almost 27 years and just spent almost $1,000 online for parts to refresh and perk my girl up. Looks better, runs much better and will never get rid of her! Remember... "It's cheaper to keep her"
