Are you talking about Maier or OEM?
I heard the white front fender is near impossible to get and the headlight, shrouds and airbox cover are all unavailable also.

The front and rear fenders are available through Mair. I beleive Speed and Sport can hook you up with new OEM rears with new facrory correct decals. The shrouds and air box cover Is being reprodiced by our favorite Aussie triker. I have sent him an air box cover to duplicate and he is already working on the shrouds. I hear head light shells may be in the near future.

Today's progress. I need a power sander. The front fender is badly oxidized. Looks real good underneath it though and there's no cracks.
Used carb cleaner to get most of the paint off but it's not working as well on the headlight. Not sure what else to try that won't damage the plastic.
I put that bottle WHERE?!?

I would have to say if the carb cleaner worked a little for the headlight, soak her a little more than you normally would and scrub till your arms pop outa there sockets until you got the rest of the black paint off.
EDIT- Time to change the sig dammit, you have to add the Z to it!

i was gonna buy that z from him months ago. but after inquiring about it a few times he didnt seem to motivated to move it so i moved on to a honda 250r. i beleive he told me that the motor had been bored out. he also has an 81 250r for some really insanely cheap price if i recall. kinda wished i had bought that but glad i got my honda.

First time I asked about it was like 2 months ago. Timing just wasn't quite right. I was surprised he still had it.Originally Posted by willcamach
Headlight is almost done. I can't quite get the paint that's down in the grill portion. It's actually in the dishwasher right now (lol, if I had a wife she'd kill me). Maybe the hotwater and jets will get it out of there. Then again, maybe it'll melt.
It's pretty faded on the top so I'm gonna have to wet sand it as well. Beats buying a new one though.

i think your asking for a melted headlight shell,
it gets pretty hot in there..... but maybe you get lucky and it will only warp? lol
Post a pic when it gets out!!

I think they changed that mid-production. Later production runs don't have real vents either. Edit: could be wrong but there was no way to get the spray paint off without destroying the factory paint underneath if that's the case.

Correct about the tires. It's got YFZ hubs and Banshee rims on it too. He also gave me the original hubs and a Zinger gas tank in case I ever want to do a MX type setup on it.

Dude. I'm tortured by the question of what to do with this thing. There are so many cool color combos you can do with Z's. I broke the bank for a little while getting these last two trikes so it's gonna wait a while anyway. For now I'm just gonna clean up what I can and slowly go about getting it mechanically sound. Maybe by then I'll have it figured out.cool deal
