Look on the neck of your triple tree and the vehicle identification number will be stamped into the area. This VIN will determine what model you have. Presence of carbs has little to do with identification as many folks replaced the FI with carbs. Note that the 'X' is a sequential number. Let me expand what Patton posted:

1984 1100 ELR
European model: KZT10R XXXXXXXX
Canadian model: JKAZBR1 XXXXXXXX

1982 GPz1100
European model: KZT10B XXXXXX
North American model: JKAZBB1 XXXXXXXX

Both your motor and frame VIN have a 'B' in the sixth position = GPz1100. If it were the standard KZ1100 model, the sixth position would be an 'A'. A very common change was to replace the FI with carbs.

Just wanted to say welcome to KZR! Some nice bikes that you have there. I hope that you will document your swingarm conversion. I'm always a fan of the project threads, and I do like the conversions if done right.

Talk to mark1122 about that ZRX swing arm conversion. He is the man with the info there. I used a GSXR750 swingarm for my bike.
