Hello from Mass. was created by smack doogle
Happy New Year all!!! I stumbled on here on pure boredum and luck. Glad I did. Anyway, I have a 82" KZ440 LTD. That my wife and I have been tinkering with for the last year. She's in great shape but a little hard starting when cold. I'd also like to get rid of the little rear tire for something a little larger in diameter. Any suggestions?

Welcome to KZR
The diameter of the tire is close to a tire on an 18 inch wheel. The rim is 16 inch compared to an 18 inch. The tires from both are about the same overall diameter so swaping rims would be for asthetics only

Mcdroid beat me to the punch. Nice little KZ you got there. Welcome. If you can't get the cold start issues sorted, just ship the bike to one of us Houston members. JK

Are we about to see a KZ440 with a late model swingarm?
