Newbie with some questions
11 Apr 2024 05:05
Hey everyone,
New guy from Ontario. I recently bought a 1982 KZ440D belt drive, and am planning on doing a small build.
Some questions:
What parts are needed for a chain conversion?
Are there any 17" mag wheels from other models/years that will fit?
Thanks!

I believe the swap is supposed to be straight forward and you'd only need the chain and sprockets. But I don't know if you'd need the chain guard or whether or not it's a direct bolt-on to the swing arm; the belt guard may suffice (?). You can compare stuff yourself, but from the diagrams at Partzilla the 440A Ltd & your 82 D4 have the same output shaft, so the Fr sprocket should fit; and the rear hub components are the same*, so the Rr sprocket should fit as well.
* - there are two part numbers for the sprocket-carrier/coupling-assy but one of the part numbers is the same and the other one may have just a minor difference. not sure.

Did a little digging, part numbers for new sprockets from JT Sprockets.
