I note that you had posted in another thread that you were looking for a manual and that in this thread you list one of your bikes as a 1980 LTD. What you have pictured is a KZ1000-E2 Shaft, not an LTD model. When you decide on a manual (I'm the fellow that recommended you buy a Kawasaki shop manual) DON'T buy the one for the LTD/Standard KZ1000. The shaft model is different enough from the other models that Kawasaki issued a separate manual for your bike. Buy the KZ1000 Shaft shop manual.
