Z1000 bling info required, where what and how much, specifically rear seat cowl for a 2004 Z1000 in red pre publicity shot of the reason why

Seat cowl is same as zx6r 03-04.

Go and look at phils. But get Problemchilds arrow exhaust

All red ones should look like this.........
Lots and lots and lots and lots of mods, get your cheque book out as they used to say.
I'm sure me Phil and PB can help you spend ya money.

Get your cowl from the States Ebay, always on there cheap.

Damo it looks like that coz it never gets ridden

Yeah.....DON'T!!!!!

I use one of the Ebay chinese plastic ones. Very solidly built and cheap, but it required some creative cutting to make it fit. It hits the two nuts that stick out of the latch bracket but simply cutting away the bits that hit have it fit properly. Also required the front mounts to be bent slightly to prevent side-to-side movement. Whether you need to do these mods or not might depend on where it is sourced, they may have fixed this problem by now.

However if I had a do-over I would just go buy a genuine one and not muck around.

I had an ebay one for the 636 (similar shape as the zeddy) ..... fell apart on the first outing.
Eric I ended up ordering a genuine one from Kawasaki & it fits perfect, colour is spot on & cost was about $140 from memory

Bike has arrived, yeeha, and I luuuuuvvvvvvvv it, Galfers, Pazzos, Bar ends on order, Flywheels checking out the cowl for me, did I happen to mention I luuuuuvvvvv it

Congrats on the new Steed Eric!!!!
