The brakes aren't especially complicated, they just incorporated a fashionable (but rubbish) anti-dive system.
Bypass it with a single line from the master cylinder to the caliper, uprate the fork springs and use heavier oil.
Oh don’t worry, none of that stuff is staying……..plan is up-to-date suspension, brakes, wheels and tyres. Bypass it with a single line from the master cylinder to the caliper, uprate the fork springs and use heavier oil.
Are we laying bets on when No3 big end s
ts its self? 
An oil pressure relief spring from a ZZR1100 is stronger, stops the oil pressure from dropping and blowing No3 big end out.
Has it had the oil feed to the inlet cam uprated? Iirc there were yellow stickers on the uprated pipes to show the new parts were fitted.

I guess you're not needing too many standard parts but The Gpz Zone stocks a few hard to find odds and sods

Nice to see this. I've got an A3 mild project too. Mot'd and on the road, but I can't get it running consistently (guessing amplifiers /coils as it sometimes will start perfectly and then gradually lose a cylinder at a time, though the lost cylinder oesn't always seem related to the coil it's on, so I could be barking up the wrong tree). I need a kick up the arse to get on it

I had something simular on my A7, ok in the higher revs(above 5k). It was rust in the tank working it's way through the carbs. Resealed the tank, cleaned out the carbs and all ok now. Does need prime to start if I don't run it for 3 or 4 weeks but I think that's normal
I couldn’t afford the racing boots however and made do with Trainers
