Last Update 12/21/2012 

I've had many inquiries about the custom K&N style 'POD' Air Filters I made some years ago, but I've discontinued those and none are available anywhere I know of except that you might find a used set from a member selling them on ebay or some such thing.  They really were not an ideal solution for the carb bikes. I made them for the custom fuel injection kits I was assembling back around 2007'/2008'.  On carbs they were much too tight of a fit.  The throttle bodies were smaller in diameter and shorter overall than a set of carbs, so they worked just fine on ZN1300's, ZG1300's, and on the few KZ1300's that used my fuel injection kit.  I maintain the original page showing the PODS, but I won't make any more PODS.  Feel free to come up with your own design and sell them as there's plenty of demand for a better air filter solution over the stock airbox.

It was quoted $5000 to have molds made for these PODS originally, although I got a better rate because they couldn't make them fit the carbs properly.  For those that are interested, I could have more made from my mold, but there's a $5000 minimum order to get someone to do it for us, It doesn't make any sense to do that unless YOU want to put up the money to have it done.  Then you'll have a whole bunch of pods to sell that don't really fit properly on the carb bikes, but you will sell them no doubt because I did.  There are still plenty of people asking about them.  If you've got $5000 to spend on this project, in my opinion, it would be better to spend it coming up with a better air filter solution that people will like.

On that note, if you go to the South Africa Club page, they have some air filter cones they use which may be an option for you.  I show the best pictures I can find in my database from different angles of these cones first.  The last 2 images are from a German Z1300 Club meet where I see someone has machined a filter out of aluminum I suppose, and it appears to use the original rubber boots to mount it.  So there's options out there if some of you machinists want to make something for us.  I prefer the look of the cones with the fine wire mesh on the green bike in the first image assuming it flows enough air.

DO NOT CONTACT david@kz1300.com about thes PODS or air filters in the following pictures!!!  I simply added these to my page so you can see what Z1300 owners have fabricated as a custom filter solution for our bikes.  There may be other parts from other members that I'll add to this page at a later date as I'm made aware of them.

$370 + $35.00 Standard Flat Rate Shipping Service Worldwide.  1981 'ONLY' KZ1300 or Z1300 Igniter Reproduction (NEW)!

Z1300 owners worldwide finally have a replacement igniter available for the impossible to find 'one year only' 1981 igniter.  This electronic ignition is a faithful reproduction of the original item.  It has been manufactured using modern components and latest manufacturing techniques.  Each unit is individually tested in an engine simulator for 24 hours and comes with one year warranty.

Plug and play installation, the new unit fits into your original igniter enclosure.  The unit is delivered complete with cooling plate, extended cables and original Hitachi connectors.  Installation instruction leaflet with assembly picture is included in the delivery.  Delivery worldwide.

Here's what you'll have to do to swap the new electronics into your old enclosure:

Step 1) Remove igniter box from bike, loosen igniter box fixing bolts and disconnect the two plugs.

Step 2) Place unit on table and open igniter box cover.  Carefully bend the steel tabs upwards and slide steel cover off.  Remove rubber cover.

Step 3) Unscrew the cooling plate fixing screws from outside the igniter box.

Step 4) Unscrew the circuit board fixing screws and remove old igniter.



Step 5) Fasten new igniter in place with the old fixing screws (6).

Step 6) Position rubber cover over igniter and fix steel cover in place with tabs.

Step 7) Seal the cable opening of the igniter box with suitable silicone based sealant, and allow sufficient time for sealant to setup before putting unit into service.

Step 8) Connect the wiring plugs and install igniter box on bike.

Note! The igniter is a copy of the original one and requires that the original ballast resistor be in the circuit if and only if the stock OEM style 1.5 ohm coils are used.  If your coils have been replaced with aftermarket coils, make sure that they are of the proper rating. (2.5 - 3.0 ohm)  If there is any question as the whether the ballast resistor is to remain in the circuit, refer to my extensive technical article on updating to new Nology coils -
