Replacing the HEAD
Well Seeing as a *New* Head Vs. New Amal Carbs is ALOT cheap im fixing my Ninja and i found a Head in TX for $75 Complete - the Cams
So, i guess im going to buy it but What do you guys think? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kawas...Q5fAccessories Number 1 looks kinda like it was a bit lean:idk: But ill be sure to clean it all up before i put it on. |
What's wrong with your old head, and what does that have to do with Amal carbs? :scratch:

one of the cam caps was damaged, and they're not interchangeable between heads because they're line bored in the head as an assembly.
dont forget a new headgasket when you do this, along with the torque wrench and service manual for the torque specs on the head bolts. |
The square body Amals are pricey I'm told, but I will say they work mighty well..
I believe the twins I used to ride had 36 or 38mm Amals on them. We never had carb problems. Sounds like a pretty good deal on the head, just get a manual, take your time and do it by the book. |

I still don't know what that has to do with crappy English carbs, but I'm sure it's related somehow... JC |
I think the alternative was to get the Triumph running and ride it instead of the 2fiddy Ninja. Me thinks that's not really an alternative at all. Can you even buy whitworth wrenches anymore?
