Hi everybody, I'm new to the site and live in Toronto,Canada.I am the owner of a 1980 KZ 750/4 Ltd. with approximately 5,000 miles on it.I broke the original speedometer a long time ago. The bike has been in storage for 28 years. I got married and forgot about the bike. Everything on the bike is original except the speedometer,the original was in KPH for Canada,the one I bought in E-BAY is from an American model and is in MPH. I have her up and running like new,and put new Pirelli tires. I used to have triple engine guards for it , I still have one but one was scratched up and I threw it away. Lately I have been looking everywhere for these engine guards and all the ones I find are for the KZ 900 & 1000.,so I joined this site with the hope that maybe someone out there has a pair they dont need. Attached are some pictures and thank-you for your help.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

Welcome.
Try your picture again, I can't see it.
I work in Toronto, and live in Sutton.
