The leading axle forks started with the 1981 LTD's. My 1980 KZ1000 LTD has the center axle forks.

so, i think the difference in angle from the regular to the ltd is guestimatedly roughly somewhere around The steering rake has been extended to 30° while the standard model makes do with a 27 ° head angle. But because of the reduced offset on the triple clamps the trail has only increased from 4.2 in. to 4.8 in.

Did I show you my track dressed bike pictures???







I thought of mounting this mini tail section and paint it in black... I was even going to buy a shorter Leo Vince can so it would not stick out as much...

Crotch rocket???

The SV650 is a naked V-Twin Standard Motorcycle... Not a super sport, or crotch rocket...

My KZ1000 is more of a crotch rocket of it's time, with a 1000cc I-4 engine... :) check your facts... Ha!

Besides a super sport, is the ultimate performance road bike...
