ZL1000 Sump Pan Alternates

Hey Guys,
The donk I acquired from Crusty was beautiful if it weren’t for a hole punched in the side and the temp sensor ripped out during its last seconds of life. I took the damaged sump pan and went for a ride on my ZZR250 to collect a GPZ900 sump from a wrecker thinking it would be the same but alas, same it was not. The ZL sump pan is cast higher at the forward end to accommodate sufficient exhaust clearance. The GPZs also has two additional holes for its oil cooler which is not required for mine (although :idea: ). The interface appears to be identical but my dealer advises that the gaskets also have a different pat number. He couldn’t say why as he didn’t have each in stock to compare the differences.

I left it with them because I thought I may have difficulty were the ZLs exhaust balance pipe crosses under the engine (I wasn’t sure if it went in front of or under the pan). Anyway when I got home to look at my velocipede, my grief was set :evil: . Now I can’t get a replacement sump to fit, or can I?

Can any of you advise what model Kawasaki has a sump pan that’s interchangeable with the ZL1000 (without interfering with the stock ZL exhaust)?

If there are no alternates for my/our ZLs, does anyone have a stray sump pan in serviceable and undamaged condition (paint is of no consequence)? The wrecker was going to make money out of my so why not you guys, hey, perhaps I have something to swap :wink: .

I’d like to complete the spare engine because I think I may need it before 06Dec04. Very much looking forward to your replies…

Hey Rocket, May be TOO LATE but theres a Sump on Ebay at the Moment, Check under kawasaki eliminator, Later Rocky :twisted:
 
Rocky,
thanks mate. I had a look at it yesterday and the description did non inspire confidence in its condition (i.e. reminding us that it is second hand and look carefully at the pics, just one and of poor quality. I've since discovered that a new one will only cost AUI$197.00 which is not so bad, just got to wait for it to come from Japan.

I also purchased (eBay again) Zedder’s Kawasaki parts cross reference catalogue on CD and it’s given me the confidence that I won’t find a sump pan from anything other than a ZL900/1000 and these can’t be found at any wrecker in OZ.

Thanks again for your thought’s…

Post the part #s and I`ll check my master fische and see what`s the same.
I also have a motor for sale after converting to the ZRX 1200.
No clutch cover,pulsing cover,carbs,output shaft or outdrive.
23k on it and it ran fine before I removed it.
