Is this the mirror you are looking for ?    



Pretty similar to what I’m looking for!! Curious that I did not see it when looking in Emgo catalog.
It is however different than OEM Kawasaki’s as there is no "ball joint" adjustment at the base of the mirror. I would prefer so as this ball adjuster allow "while-riding" adjustment.
But so far, it is the closest to what I’m looking for. Thanks!!!

Z1 Enterprises sells an assortment of mirrors that would work. I think some are period correct. Others are modern/cafe style.



I surfed through all their mirrors and the only "sililar" one is the Z1-R repro. Here, I’m looking for a 1981-1984 repro. Thanks anyway!

Edit: Geez! How to separate our post to the quote we are answering???

When you click to start typing your reply with quoted material, a red dashed line will appear at the very bottom of the text box. On the right end of the line is a red box. Click on it and your cursor will move outside the quotation area and you can type your post there, just like this.

One more question, related to every 1981-1984 KZ1000 & 1100 models.
Is there a way to make the camshafts end caps leak proof?
I had a 1981 KZ1100 from 1981 to 1996 and I remember pretty well the task of regularly cleaning the four "corners" of the cylinderhead to wipe off the oil.
Hopefully, the last 40 years provided a proven solution...
Thanks!!
