WANTED:water pump plastic bevel gear - even broken

No mate.......

The Metal Drive Gear is the same on all models regardless.

The actual Nylon Driven Gear on all models is the same too........but it is attached to a metal centre with splines & cannot be removed without damaging it.

It is the METAL CENTRE with splines on the Nylon Gear that is the different fitting. It is Longer on the A1 & A2 to drive the ignition pick ups & slightly shorter on the A3/A4/A5 as it is not needed due to the different ignition system.

I am 99% certain you can use the A1 & A2 Nylon Gear on all later models & fuel inj models (such as yours), but you CANNOT use the LATER nylon gear on the early A1 & A2 as the centre part is too short.

Hope that helps ?

Ticklehappy.

The one on EBAY is the METAL Drive Gear.

Our friend needs the NYLON Driven Gear which the metal one drives.

Understood!

Perfect - that is very helpful indeed. Thank you! I have contacted the seller, and hopefully can make this work. I'll get this bike running again yet!

Thank you so much for your help Strate6, your knowledge and experience has really helped me out here.

Its an absolute pleasure mate !

Its Brother Bill you need to thank as without his input & this site, we would never have been able to communicate in the first place !

Hope you get all sorted & always here to help any owner I can.

Absolutely - many thanks to Bill for putting the site up - great info here!

I made an offer on those cylinders, and the seller accepted. I bought stuff from that seller before, so I am confident that I will have these next week, and can move forward with rebuild.

Thanks again!

Since I have the head off, I think I'll start replacing the valve stem seals over the weekend in readiness.

I only provided the box which would be very boring without the sand each of you contribute every day.

I'd like to thank every one of you for your contributions.

We're well on our way to being the world's best tech resource for Kawasaki Sixes.
