Mine is only a 700. Isn't it included in the small ones?

I think so. There are guys here that know a lot more about the small fours.

Bonus info: Bikes cost at least twice as much here compared to US prices :(

Yes, here too in the UK. A lot of classics have been imported here from US already.

The primary drive and clutch damper arrangement is very similar across all the 400\500\550\650\700\750 fours. The 900\1000\1100 have a gear primary drive instead, as opposed to a chain.

Don't worry about the clutch going bang, I've never heard of it once on a kawi 4, whilst virtually every bike now has this clutch basket rattle.

Thanks everyone. Trip went great. Me on my KZ and the girlfriend on her Suzuki GS450S. They sure made some great bikes back in '83 :woohoo:
