Z 500 mechanical advance springs...

Hi..

I have been diagnosing an issue with a Z500 and have found the problem to be the mechanical advancer springs no longer work as they should. Does anybody know a source to get new ones from or an alternate bike that uses the same springs?

I know it's a long shot but I thought the gurus here might know...

Thanks...

Yes, seek and you will find. Either a thread here or ebay, can't remember. The springs can fatigue that will affect your advance. There are a couple of rubber dampers on the ATU that can go missing too.

I bought one for a 750 and switched parts to make a good Z1 part. $25
