Well thanks 👍 shes been running great si certainly I fixed the gearbox, been out today as its start of Springtime here and just love pulling them power wheelie 😊
Hey brother. I own a Kawasaki Z900 2017. When i shift from neutral to 1st gear the bike kicks and jerks really had while also making a clunk noise. I'm aware that it should be normal to experience this so a small degree but it worries me that my bike does it really hard and loud...any idea whats causing it?
Hi buddy it is normal to have a clunk when going into 1st gear and it can be quite loud at times but if it's really excessive check that the clutch is adjusted properly as this can cause clunky changes .
Hi lad maybe you can help, I got a z1000r 2017 and just if I push the bike over 8000rpm + and take power away the rpm falling between 6000-8000rpms the bike is shaking it’s not smooth below 6000 and aftet 8000 everything is fine this just happen in 3th gear and sometimes I have issues with the gear 3 to 4. Thanks in advance for any advice and assistance. Cheers
@@gunterbass9290 from what you say it's hard to guess what might be wrong.. it might be worth getting the bike on a rolling road ..a dyno..and just making sure the engine is running smoothly and making proper power without a misfire before turning attentions to gearbox 👍
Most chinease dampers fit its the fitting kit that can't be got I got a z900 one and chopped it up to work but it ain't a straight fit.. I can find the link to the damper itself it u still want it .
Thanks for that, it looked like you did as the engine was upside down on the scissor jack (good bit of kit that). It's just both the manuals I looked at said remove the barrels. So it looks like turn it upside down and open up. Thanks so much for the prompt reply and your videos.
@@DD-gp4gs yep the manual is good to follow but unesisary in taking off the heads n barrels, it's engi e out, upside down, split the case and get the gear box out 👍
Hi there, it's just my opinion but I think it's a problem with the dogs on 4th gear, a bad batch or just weak, design, for the year maybe and the quickshifter finished them off as they are not really designed to take the hammer the shifter gives them.. only seemed to effect late 2014 - 2015 models

Hay Rob,any ideas on my problem,I could do with the help.... Hi.... I own a Kawasaki z1000r 2017 it's currently stuck in my garage,as I'm worried about running it anyware,it's developed a noise that doesn't sound good,and I've noticed it gets louder and quieter as it runs. I've change the chain tensioner,new oil and filter,removed the gear box,just to check nothing is loose. But it's made no difference........ I'm so down about it,as I can't get it to a garage,I've included a link to RUclips video,as I've asked advice,but I've got nothing.... Can u please help me in anyway,I would appreciate it so muck...... Thank you lee.... ruclips.net/video/KFgqaJLLbBg/видео.html
Does it still happen when engine running and u pull clutch in or does it go away? And there is a balancer shaft at front of engine that can be adjusted ..
Me and Comphysofa took the gear box apart to check nothing loose. New oil,and replaced the chain tensioner,but know nothing about front shaft adjuster.... I'm so down about my bike...
@@leek487 do you mean you and Cofy too the clutch apart? Surely not the gearbox... rattles can be a mirade of things and and to track down something simple as a header nut.. did u do anything to the bike before the rattle began?

@@trebor4460 but had some trouble with the 3th and 4th gear, I believe that the gearfork is bend or so
Hi, did you have to strip the top end down to split the crankcase or can this be left intact when mending the gearbox? Thanks in advance
Hi buddy no leave the top end well alone it can all be done without touching it 👍
