0024WORKS's Z900RS

z900rs_01.jpg

The Z900RS is a popular model with a high number of sales, and there are a wide variety of aftermarket custom parts from numerous manufacturers and shops. With new models constantly being released, choosing the right parts can sometimes be overwhelming.

At 0024 Works, they carefully listen to customers’ preferences and concerns, considering each need from a user-centric perspective. They guide customers through the decision-making process, offering tailored feedback on which parts best match the customer’s vision, including style and color. Despite working with many Z900RS owners, no two machines share identical specifications. While some parts may be common across builds, or customers may draw inspiration from other exceptional examples, each retains its unique character. This one is no exception, having been crafted through this thoughtful, personalized approach.

"The owner really likes the color gold," says Mr. Onishi from 0024 Works. "So, we decided to make gold the theme. As we continued discussing, the owner also mentioned a fondness for white. From there, we thought combining both colors would be a great idea, and that's how we chose and arranged the parts." The bike is fitted with an American Dream Cafe Racer Cowl Kit, which is highly popular at 0024 Works. The exterior, including the cowl kit and under cowl, was finished with a tiger pattern: a white base with gold lines, creating a sleek and clean look.

Gold was used on larger parts, such as the wheels and steps, to balance with the white areas. The polished finish on the titanium exhaust is also part of this design approach. Additionally, gold accents were added to the brake disc inners and radiator cap. When sourcing painted parts from different manufacturers, color variations can occur, but 0024 Works has managed to achieve a cohesive look. Their ability to carefully consider and overcome such challenges is a testament to their expertise, and it's a detail that really stands out in this custom project.

Each part’s functionality and the color options available from various manufacturers are thoroughly understood and carefully considered to make the most of every component. This knowledge and attention to detail allow for a more personalized custom creation, making the customization process enjoyable. This machine serves as a great reference for those who want to enjoy the customization process while creating a unique ride.

While the American Dream Cafe Racer Cowl Kit is mounted lower, and the bike features HURRICANE Clip-Ons and Brembo RCS Master Cylinder, similar to many other Z900RS builds by 0024 Works, the white-finished mirrors and top bridge cover create a unique look for this bike.

The handlebars are HURRICANE Clip-Ons, paired with a Brembo RCS Front Brake Master Cylinder. The clutch lever has been replaced with a RIDEA lever, while the meter panels sport a custom white finish. The fuel cap is sourced from MOTO CORSE, and the grips are by Domino. The top bridge cover is provided by 0024 Works.

An ENNEPETAL rear shock (distributed by 0024 Works) has been fitted with a bespoke gold-colored spring, spring adjuster, and spring holder. The link plate is also gold and made by 0024. The exhaust system is a polished American Dream NEO Short Titanium with a quenching (heat coloring) effect, and an optional brand logo is also added.
