Thanks. The paint is black and House of Kolor Oriental Blue over Blue/Silver base.

Do these wheels weight as much/ more than standard?. I was amazed what the difference was between the GPZ900R rear and my previous Z1-R, with the swingarm the difference is about 6Kg (13 lb I think).
They look fantastic regardless.

Well, the older wheels are heavier than most new wheels to begin with and I'm sure the widened wheels are even heavier with the added material. I would suggest updating to newer wheels if you're comfortable with all the fab work - spacers, brake rotors / calipers, speedo drive etc... I liked the stock look and I'm not worried about a few pounds here and there so I just went the widening route. I'd like to do a modern suspension / wheel project one of these days.

Very nice Pete, Congrats! My first KZ1000 was an '80 LTD. I really like that stock-inspired paint...looks great!

I just noticed you got it in the mid '80's for $1200...me too! I think I got mine in '87 but it was $1200 from a dealer. Around 6k miles and 100% stock and nearly mint. Wish I still had it....
