Any kz400 rings still in existence??? was created by ledhead012
I recently picked up a set of rings for a '77 kz400 D4 on ebay, only to find one small detail left out of the listing: the rings are 2 sizes over. flash forward to two weeks later - two parts dealers notified me a week after ordering that Kawasaki no longer manufactures the part (even though both websites listed the item in stock :huh: )Well I'm just about to give up hope tryna track down the last part needed for my rebuild, and thought i'd put my faith in you fine fellas for a reliable NOS dealer. All input is greatly appreciated.

Bike Bandit appears to sell them as sets for the piston instead of the individual rings. Cheaper by the set.

Brand new KZ400 standard piston/ring/pin sets for $36 each.

www.cyclewareables.com/pages/vintage_pis...age_piston_rings.htm

For $36, you get the piston, rings, wrist pin and end clips as a full set

I am running a set from them in my 750 twin.
