Kawasaki KZ650/Z650 B1 1977 - Fitting the Exhaust Downpipes - Part 80

[@eg39701]

The kerker 4-1 exhaust is by far the most frustrating thing I've ever done on a bike.

Exhausts can be a pain, specially when doing it by yourself

Maybe invite Allen Millyard to your channel, he seems to like old Kawasakis and put 2 extra cylinders on them, very easy 😁

Hi, What is the fixing kit part number of the Abba stand please. I've contacted several suppliers who say they can't supply anything below 2017. Thanks in advance.

Hi, the main kit i bought was for my Hayabusa, later i bought a paddock stand kit, part number was 04E4B-3B, which fitted into the Z650 pivot bolt hole perfectly to allow me to raise it up, but cannot have swingarm attached, also a combination of the 2 kits worked for my ST1100 as well, but ABBA do not do kits for either a Z650 or ST1100, with the Z650 swingarm on i just used the cups that hold the different size adapters, they sat over the pivot bolt and nut, but a i found out use with caution and do not raise the bike to high, as mine fell off, which was my fault entirely.

@TheAmateurBikeBuilder Thanks. Having spoken directly to Abba I've bought the stand & fixings which will fit onto the bolt head (22mm) & nut (24mm) securing the swing arm. Just need to get the back wheel off the ground to make working on the back end easier. I took the centre stand off completely as it was pretty useless & ~5KG of rust. Thanks again for getting back to me.
