KZ750 Header question

Hello,
I have a 1980 KZ750 4 cylinder engined bike that i need headers for. I am having a hard time finding any and was wondering if any other model KZ header would fit.
Thanks
Bryan

I am not an expert on cross fitting, but the 750 four was very popular. I have seen new header sets for them on ebay.

I've seen those on eBay but they are too new and shiney!
I'm looking for old down-and-dirty headers to match the rest of the bike. I only need the header as i have a Ducati silencer on it.
Thanks

Yeah, I just bought a used header on ebay. Leaks at every joint. They never mention that they were laid over and the fittings aren't round anymore....

I know exactly what you mean about ebay headers. The one on my bike was from ebay sold as for a KZ750 excapt it doesn't fit very well. The pipes seem too small at the head and there are no 'collers' around the pipes for the retainers to go on. I ended up welding the retainers to the pipe but it leaks like crazy. So, KZ650 header will fit? Thanks.
