GPz's Downunder 2010
From all around Australia, owners of GPz900R's are getting ready to head to the World Superbikes in February 2010.
This web site will eventually become the new home of my Classic Japanese Motorcycle Restoration site. The current site features my motorcycle restoration projects which include my restoration work on a 1974 Kawasaki z1a, a 1978 z1000-A2 rebuild notes on my z900-A4, GPz1100's and the Gpz900R rebuild. Additional information on kawasaki street bikes from the 70's and 80's including work on early Kawasaki EFI systems is also being compiled with details of my first attempts to convert the z1000A2 to a Megasquirt EFI system.

In addition the site has a photo archive with progress notes about the work I have performed on my 1978 Kawasaki z1000A2, my 1974 Kawasaki z1a, my 1976 Kawasaki z900-a4 and my 1984 GPz900R.

There is also some information on my Honda Cafe Racer I am planning to build and the CB750 chopper I also intend to build one day.

Completed 1984 GPz900R
Purchased October 2006, finished and registered April 2008, I have a PDF document available here which details the schedule of work for the rebuild of my GPz900R (also know as a ZX900A1) which details how I went about rebuilding this bike after purchasing it on eBay in 2006

Here is some older information on some Websphere MQ technology I worked on. It is given in the public domain.

MQ Utilities

I have had the need over the years for some simple tools to transfer data between different systems, recently this extended to sending data between business partners over the net. The code samples provide 2 utilities to Put and Get data from queues with the optional ability to use AES encryption to secure the data.

Follow this link to my MQ tools and utilities.
