Hi all from virginia
21 Jan 2016 14:43 - 21 Jan 2016 14:44
My name is Chris
Not new to the bike world but just received a 80 440 ltd so my aim is to use your help guides to get her right because its so much easier than searching google or repair manuals.
So before I even get to it I thought I'd say hi and thanks for all the help!
Nice to meet all of you and hopefully one day we can meet for a ride

This is a really good source of information, but for basic maintenance things please use your manual. If you dont have one you can download one free at kz400.com.
These are really fun bikes. The first quirk you might run into is the airbox; they are very reliant on it. If you keep the stock carbs, keep the box.
I've got two of these bikes. Here is a thread on one I did a single carb conversion on.
