But I had a brown painted 1977 KZ1000 , first 1/2 year.
It had a drum brake rear. Second half of the year, it was disc on the rear.
Maybe a Lincoln, NE. thing.
Good luck. Nice to see another drag racer, getting back to the roots of the 1/4 mile.

is there anywhere i can get info on my kz900a5? i have seen z1enterprises info and it is great. in there info it states that sometimes the engine number is lower than the frame number but this is fairly rare. well, i wanna know how many were made that way and i wanna know if im restoring it correctly. i cant get a straight answer if it should have the four into four exhaust or four into two. HELP!!!

By definition, your A5 came with 4into4 exhausts, just like the A4. The KZ900B1 came with 4into2 exhausts (Jardines) while the A5 contemporary (KZ1000A1) came with 4into2 exhaust. Check your tripletree for the VIN...that will clear everything up. :huh:
