Good Fortune! :)


Interesting! I have 3 different Kawasaki Parts Catalogs for the KZ650 and they all show 6mm x 14mm. I'll post pics when I get a chance. Ed

The 3 different Kawasaki Parts Catalogs I have cover the 1977-78 KZ650 B & C models. They all call for part number 220B0614 which is 6mm x 14mm. I don't know when the change was made on Kawasaki.com or if the 6x18 will fit without bottoming out in the cylinder head. Ed

Hey guys! I poted this question in my "replacing factory exhaust" thread over in the engine section...Need an opinion on whether or not my header is correctly installed...Currently using factory split keepers -vs- the ones that came with the header...Take a look at other thread, (with pics!!!) and let me know what y'all think! Thanx!

Thanx again for all the help so far! As promised over in the engine section, I have posted my first youtube video...I will be pulling V&H back off, and looking again more carefully for stacked copper gaskets, (although I did check the first time, I DID! I swear I did...I really did! lOL!) so, without further ado, I give you the dulcet tones of "Grumpy's toy" (I am thinking about Christening her "Bluella"...mebbe have a "Name that bike" contest! LOL!) Enjoy guys! Thanx again SOOOO much!

Sorry about that, Dumont! LOL! It is actually quite a bit louder than what I was hoping it would be...Was told that the street baffle is pretty quiet...I have since discovered that "quiet" is a relative term! I really liked the sneaky quiet of the original exhaust...Let the cops chase the noisy guys all over town... well I have become what I beheld, I guess...looks "unbalanced" also...all the pipes on one side...kiinda asymmetrical....Shiny though! (What kinda shape is your stock exhaust in?Hmmmm...) LOL!
(edit:) Got her out and about this weekend...got a sticky shifter to figure out/fix, but alotta fun!

Love it man, sounds great, looks great, and the F-150 looks great too. What year is it? Can't tell since I can't see the headlights. I used to have an 85 with a 302 and an 86 with the i-300 straight 6, 3 on the tree. Miss those trucks.

Thanx Joe! My boy just brought the F-150 home from Brookville, Indiana last week...It's a 1988 with 120 k on the clock...It is pretty pretty clean for it's age...300 straight six, five speed on the floor. Cab corners and rear wheel fender lips are the only "iffy" spots on it..He's pretty happy with it! Thanx again!

Man Grumpy its coming along great. I have to say after hearing that maybe I will stick with my stock 4-2. I'd feel pretty bad waking up my neighbors at 6:45am everyday with something like that! haha It looks damn cool though.
