Can anyone tell me if a Stefan Jung alternator will fit a Z with Rickman crashbars.
Thanks

Des, I am not that familiar with the fit of the Rickman bars, I just know from what I have seen on pictures that they wrap around quite a bit. If you have a Z with the small Euro alternator and the bars are very close, it is likely you may have a problem. If you have the large alternator and a little space between bars and alt housing, you should be fine.

I have a Jung alternator fitted & could take some measurements if required Des ?

If you could please Larry, the right side edge is most important as this is were the crash bars start to bend inwards

Hope this helps Des, I have the SunDog billet cover ( now sold via TIMS) but the one Stefan uses is the original thin plate, so I measured for that.

Note: Measurements are from the center of the top rear engine bolt....Imperial measurements, sorry .

This is a pic from last years Minehead rally of one of UKCBXCLUB members bikes fitted with Rickman bars. I see why you are doubtful Des...

Let us know how you get on Des as I'm sure one or two others may want the same installation.....
