The Z900RS by 0024 Works in Toyama is said to attract many Kawasaki Z900RS owners. Like the Z900RS (2020-2021 Candy Tone Green base) by Mr. Onishi of the same shop, which was introduced in this article on March 15, 2021, it has the common feature of being equipped with separate handlebars and an American Dream cafe racer cowl, but when comparing the two bikes, you will notice that there are surprisingly many differences between them.
"The owner of this motorcycle likes red and black, so we gave it a tiger pattern with red stripes. The BEET footpeg was also ordered in red and black," said Onishi of 0024 Works. The wire-spoke wheels, with red hubs and nipples, black-toned spokes, and black rims, are the motorcycle's most distinctive feature.
"Rim kits were just coming out, so we tried them on. They're a little heavy, but the look is one of a kind," he said, so this is something to look out for. The Z900RS, which pays homage to the air-cooled Z, is so well-suited that it would not be strange if it was genuine like the old Zephyr 1100RS.
The café racer cowl is mounted with 0024 Works brackets, just like Onishi's Z900RS, but if you look closely, you can see that the mounting position is also different.
The angle of the separate handlebars is different between the two vehicles, and mine is lower than Onishi's. So I positioned the cowl a little lower. So, I made the cowl position a little higher to match the handlebar angle I wanted. You can notice the difference only when you compare them closely, but that is due to the difference in orientation and the range of setup. Here, too, one can catch a glimpse of the sense of craftsmanship that goes into making each vehicle unique.
By the way, this motorcycle was not yet complete at the time of the photo shoot. The red bitubo rear shocks and front cartridge kit will be installed, and the brake lines will be changed in the future.
Detailed Description

The half type cowl is American Dream's cafe racer cowl kit. The brackets are made by 0024 Works to minimize interference in various parts.

The handlebars are clamped to the front forks with Hurricane separates, removing the stock risers. The threaded holes in the top bridge were filled with 0024 Works top bridge covers. The levers, grips, and bar ends were replaced and color matched.

The seat is a tuck-roll type. The exterior has been painted red and black by the Z900RS '20-'21 Candy Tone Green Tiger Pattern.

The footpeg kit, including the tandem side, is made by BEET and was color-ordered in red and black to match the vehicle body color.

The engine and frame are stock, with frame sliders on the front of the cylinders and a Doremi Collection core guard on the radiator.

The added undercowl is also in the same color scheme as the body color, and looks so integrated that it could be considered a factory-installed unit.

The high-impact suspension is equipped with the wire spoke wheels of a Z900RS compatible kit (3.50-17/5.50-17 size, machined hub) with 36 spokes and RK aluminum rims. The front fork is a stock 41mm diameter, but a cartridge kit will be assembled in the future.

The exhaust system is an American Dream NEO Short Titanium Type-Quenthing, and the rear shock, swingarm, and brake system are currently stock for the Z900RS, but there are plans to replace them with bitubo rear shocks and stainless mesh brake lines.
