Oooooo! You just gave me inspiration for how to re-do my Zn1300 when I build a new sidecar for it. I have two of these ZN's and one is now connected to a Vetter Terraplane sidecar. I am thinking of stripping the other down to make it into a street fighter, but with a Star Wars theme and a custom made aluminum sidecar. Your very sharp-angled body depicted on yours looks like it would be easy to make out of carefully cut pieces of aluminum, then welded on the seams and the seams ground smooth. What will you be making yours out of?

Hey guys,

Curious about pod filters. I'd like to ditch the massive airbox on mine as well, but I don't have an adjustable regulator or pump. Will it run noticeably lean? Mine has pretty open pipes right now and it seems to run fine.

I was thinking of making mine out of 1/8 inch steel rods to make the shape. Then, ether wrapping it in fiberglass or using some kind of metal mesh to make the panels.

Feel free to use any of my ideas. Ride safe!
