While you're at it - could you see if he has another set and a headlamp?

Any help I can get on my projects is always appreciated! It's nice to know I don't have to suffer through it all alone lol .

I've got a shopping list of stuff I still need to do and still have a long list of parts I'll still need before I even have one bike at 100% and ready to show off.

If you can check on specific stuff I need a lot of little things lol. Just been holding off on looking for it until I have the money to pay for it all . In addition to the brackets I'd need the headlight, the light's bucket, a new seat (or just an unrusted seatpan), 1980 igniter and just two original blinker assemblies. At least those are at the top of my list of things I can pull from donor bikes.

So many things to do and the wife and kids hardly leave me any garage time during the week

I always get a good laugh out of them. I haunt fleabay for parts BMW K100 and Z13) and some of the prices are hilarious. Even if I were doing a concourse resto I wouldn't pay that price for the headlight brackets if it were the last ones on the planet. There was a set on US eBay that went for $170 or roundabout that and I thought that was bad.

Ahhh an unrusted seat pan, if only someone would make some new ones I'd buy one, heck even a fibreglass replica would be great, a reasonable one is just so rare, top of my wish list, cheers

I have a fiberglass-sea tbottom that had been made by Wilfried in Germany. He also has tons of spares, but of course wants money for it.

It is to be hoped that the likes of Z1300de Germany expand their range of re manufactured parts.
Maybe, as a group, we could, at some stage,look into the practicalities of having certain parts manufactured again. It p***** me off that Kawasaki has discontinued so much, but I suppose they can't keep making spares for ever when there is a diminishing demand for them.
