I don't know why the KZ700 gets a bad rap. I know it was a tarriff buster, but from what I understand they're fine bikes... just a little smaller bore than the 750.

1980 KZ750-H1 (slightly altered)
1987 KZ1000-P6 "Ponch"
1979 GS1000 "Dadzuki"

I guess I have been swearing every time I post.

Why would people shy away from talking about the 700 engine? Is it because odd engine size? I kinda would like to know. thx.

well I have posted a few times and as soon as the 700 is mentioned it kills the thread or so it seemed, I like this engine, it revs quicker than the 650 that was on the bike and from what I found its mostly 750 parts, I bought an 84 KZ700 that needed a lot of small parts real cheap with a title but after looking for those small parts for a while I decided to upgrade my SR and my 750B, its amazing what will interchange, so now my 750B is becoming a bobber style and my SR went cafe with a bigger engine,its becomming a race to see which one hits the road first, both very close. Yhe SR needs some carb work and a few things attached or painted,the B needs rear brakes, rear fender done and some lights
