This is a query for the Z1 freaks/ nuts, out there!
There is a few mistakes in this inner fender off a Z1 series bike.
I will start buy telling you two of them!
1. It has four holes drilled in it by someone (hard to see they are on the LHS of guard).
2. It has been cut-away, probably to keep it away from a non-standard chain-guard.
3. .........See if you can spot it?
It's has nothing to do with the missing transfers or scratches on the unit. Don't be disappointed if you can't find it .....I've missed it for years!

Heres one

Chance, I'm pretty sure you are looking at a Kz900 inner guard.
 The Z1 series  .. Z1, Z1A & Z1B are different from your Z900/ Kz900 and have the dent but in adifferent place.   This is not the answer but if you compare the two and their differences you may be on the trail.

I have a 75 Z1 not a kz900..I'll look again.. Mine has the indent.,. the lhs looks shorter A piece broke off ??

[chance]

Thats it right

[chance]

Well ?

Sorry Chance, the picture was a little dark, good to see your chasing an answer. All you have to do is look at your photo and see if you notice any difference. I'm sure you will see, then I will reveal this important bit of trivia, that has taken me several years to find.

Study my photo then look at yours.
Can't reveal it til next Saturday, as I have this on a few forums... So far you are the keenest!  Response thus far has been abysmal.

This part is longer they yours

Chance, thanks for your interest.
That difference in form, was explained in the initial post  {cut away for a non-standard rear chain guard}.

Ok, time to tell!
Firstly, as some have noticed, the thing that is incorrect, about my picture of the Z1 series inner guard, is the two dowels stuck into the inner guard should never be there!

Although I have dismantled many of these bikes and found them jammed into the burnished eyelets, these dowels are not designed to protrude this far! They should be tightenened up against a large washer that fits in the rubber mount/ damper above these eylets. This oversize 6mm washer prevents the dowels from protruding into the clearence eyelet holes.    More explanation later of this trivia.
