Hey. i just got this bike for 800€ (good or bad price?) and did some maintanance to it and thank god everything was ok. Well i started looking and this 700cc model seems to be somecind of weirdo because tach is in MPH and KMH ..... so this is some import ? I have no idea of these kawasakis, well i have owned kz250cc before but anyway if you know what i should do to improve the bike im listening.....Also should i just keep the original parts somewhere safe and make it look a bit better or go balls to the wall and make it full build.

You don't list your location, but if you paid euros for it well... any 700cc bike is an '84 or later, up to about '87 I believe, US model, because of the import tariff restrictions Harley had the federal govt in the US put on all bikes.

pic didn't take.

KZ700 is US only, 1984 only, is a debored (K)Z750L3. IDK what kawis go for there but it's probably not a bad price. hard to tell until uyou get a pic up.

Looks nice, probably a good deal.

Has anyone here installed 17" wheels to these here ? Thinking to get gsxr or katana wheels to my bike but not sure what wheels will fit properly

Why stop at 17" when you can shrink them down to about 9"? Ed

Smart money with an old bike like yours is to simply focus your energy and time on doing maintenance. It seems to run well so keep it that way by doing a valve adjust, change brake fluid, lubricate swingarm and steering stem bearings, etc. That will keep you plenty busy. Changing the wheels will mess up the handling and detract value. There is nothing wrong with some customizing, but I wouldn't bother to go down that road unless this bike is a keeper since you will likely decrease value for just marginal functional changes.

Yeah, i stay whit the stock rims but will do some small kustom things BUT i keep the original parts safe. Everyone is saying that dont change the wheels so sometimes its good to listen others opinions.

But to make this bike fit my body right i need to lover the seat so my body position is good and then i need to put longer rear shocks. Any ideas what shocks i should put ? Those ebay ones look so good but damn they are way too cheap to be any good

Everything else maintenance is done but brakes..... rear feels good but oh god the front brake is horrible.....oh and right fork seal is gone...gotta change those out........OH and clutch cable and good clutch just in case.......ok yeah there is plenty to do, you are goddamn right

Nevermind, found ZRX 1100 shocks and they look like they will fit. Trying to buy them now

What am I looking at? I know what it was. How did you do that? its damn cool. I like it!!!!
