Nice find Mark.
I know first hand how hard it can be to locate that elusive part for the Zed 13 here in the UK :S .

Yes agree Tonto certain parts are a hard source others plenty of. I get envious of the members across the pond that have a wealth of this, if I ever see something I need on US e-bay I find the parts usually are well priced, but then I look at the shipping costs, consider the tax implications that are further added onto shipping, and it just becomes a no go then it becomes a game of patience for when something crops up in the UK. Its good when the sellers use the global shipping program, brings it more into line and affordable. Have seen as we all have some ridiculously priced shipping costs from the states as an example set of exhaust clamps $65. So yep it is great when we eventually manage to source the parts we need in the UK, some things may be expensive but al least we don't get hammered on postage and tax.

Hello, I realize that your post regarding a stainless steel exhaust system for a Z1300 was 9 years and 11 months ago but can't help but I'm hoping that the company is still producing the system.  Do you know if these systems are still being produced?  Thank you. Jim

I bought a pair of the stainless replica (original shape) mufflers from kawasaki1300parts in Finland several years ago - only the mufflers, not the collectors or header pipes. The quality is astounding.
I have sent a message to one of the contacts on their Facebook page, asking if they are still making exhausts for the 1300.      www.facebook.com/groups/www.kawasaki1300parts.fi?locale=en_GB


Busso Silencers in Italy list mufflers for the 1300 - not sure that they are stainless, but they look to be the original shape.     bussocompany.it/

This company used to make exhausts for the 1300, but don't seem to list one now.    armourmotorproducts.co.uk/stainless-exha.../stainless-silencers

Zed Parts list one, although the shape of the mufflers isn't quite the same as the original.    www.zed-parts.com/product-page/z1300-stainless-steel-exhaust
