Bought my 2015 new. 6200km now. Still enjoy it but rarely get to ride it. Original Lithium battery is still going after 7 years. Quality otherwise has been poor. Can't expect too much for the price. Bike has big bore kit, front cat removed and Mikuni 26mm carb. Runs well. :)

Awesome!

Re: Complete rebuild and modification Does the fuel gauge work? If it does how did you get it to work? Ta

The standard speedo is far from accurate. I don't think you can do much worse- 120km/h indicated on mine is 105km/h in reality.

A few weeks ago I got my Ace up to 120km/h but this time with a GPS in hand I found the speedo is about 15km/h optimistic... :(

What is obvious that it is a 150 rather than 125? Grind the size off the barrel if it is such a big deal.

Are they serious? A bike with around 10 horsepower is an insurance risk. Wow.

Mine warped under warranty. (amongst many other things failing) Replaced but next time on my dollar. :(

Probably the wrong place on a Cafe Racer site to show someone UN Cafe Racering their bike! GPZ900R generally doesn't work in Cafe. Yuk! :)

My work is pretty average but this project has consumed over a year so far and I have no idea when I will finish it. I did 11000km on it last year after I got it running. Engine currently apart for some work. :) No one in their right mind would fix this bike. I did because I owned the bike 20...

Mine does it too. I assumed old engine design isn't very civilised. :(

That's classified! I was going to sell ZRX stands and have a unique mount. Will share pics of Ace when I get to it. Got a GN250 stand to make mount for. :)

Looking at crossbrace behind engine and making bolt on mount from there.

Gonna make one. Haven't started yet. Made one for my two ZRX1200Rs. :)

Where did you get 101kg from? I'm 140. Haven't killed the bike yet.. :)

Another option- remove exhaust when you want to use stand. 3 bolts.

I use an old bike battery lying on its side under the sidestand then lift bike by hand (not hard) up onto a chassis stand under the muffler at the same point but opposite to sidestand. I put a rag over chassis stand to keep from damaging header.

Nah don't want to do that. reserve is the ONLY way to know how much juice is left- no gauge or trip meter. Trip meter would be good. Could change that but should have been addressed at the factory. There are cheap speedos on ebay for around $30 with a trip meter. I want the mileage on my Ace to...

Sounds great. Thanks for your advice! Something no-one seems to mention is advancing the ignition timing. Wonder if anyone has played with the timing/advance curve???? Hmmmm. :)

Oh and I flogged a mate on his Moto Guzzi Lemans 1000 with the Ace recently on a DOWNHILL run down a mountain range. I was kilometres ahead of him. Awesome fun but strange exiting corners and nothing happens pretty much when the throttle was opened. I thought I was going slowish, but turns out...
