Just curious about your comment... Do you mean that Stabil poured in ethanol blend fuel will offset the bad effect of ethanol? I'm asking as I have a few vintage motorcycle here and I always try to fill up the tanks with no ethanol fuel (+ Stabil) but such "pure" fuel becomes harder and harder...

Back in early 2000's, I was working in BRP's R&D center (in Valcourt, Quebec) and was regularly chatting with the guy responsible for the legislation and road laws. In those years, it was about their ATV and, mostly, their Spyder. Believe me when I say that what you wrote is far, far away from...

Had the same problem but the problem is now solved.

I loved it!! However, last fall, I began to collect old KZ1000/1100 and in the spring, I had a bit too many bikes so I sold the MT01. It really was different than the 4 inline feeling but for now, I'm focusing on older air cooled KZs.

I have those Motion Pro levers. When I bought them I was confident I could easily change my own tires. After three tries, on three different wheels, after many hand scars, a lot of cursing and almost two broken windows (after I thrown the levers on the wall), I stopped trying and decided my...

I was asking as I have the opportunity of buying a 1982 GPZ1100 that happens to still have the fuel injection system. The owner told me he never had a single problem with the electronics. The bike have been stored for the last 6 years and I'll go see it in april.

Would you mind asking your father if he would sell his KZ1100R? Please let me know at zxclaude@yahoo.com Thanks!

For what reason someone would get a "collectable" (because it still have its OEM fuel injection) bike that do not run well? Note: This is a serious question and really interested in the answer

Looks like they work with zipcodes only; no postal codes...

Will get a quote for sure. Thanks!

The bike is in Halifax NS. Where is the Amherst you are thinking of ?

I'm located in province of Quebec and found an interseting motorcycle located in Nova Scotia. Anyone knows a transporter that would move the bike from NS to my place?? NB I know this forum is located in Toronto... Sorry but I never handled such a shipment and I don't know where to look beside...

I think an aluminum tank would be easier to dent so possibly a bad choice of material...

I'm a french speaking newbie guy from province of Quebec so I know anyone you named... VRRA = Vintage Road Racing Association? This big KZ is not really a racing bike; you think I can get info/support there? CVMG = Must be for Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group. Looks like it could be a great...

Oh yeah, it will be a good home I would offer to that bike if I ever find one... (right between my current Versys 1000 and MT01...) Do you think GTA is a good place to make such a search? I'm asking as the focus here is maybe on newer bikes... NB: I already registered on "KZ1000R.com" and...
