Mark II Gas Tank? Same As KZ shaft Drive?

I was wondering if the 1979 KZ 1000 shaft drive model gas tank is the same for the Mark II ??
I learned those 79-80 shaft drives were all kinds of different.

Not the same. Shaft is bigger on everything including the tank.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

Yes I see now. I took a set of wheels, and a front end, nice 39mm fork tubes.
Trashed the frame to the curb with all the drive shaft parts and gears.
Here is the frame at the curb. Had a title too. I did not have room for it to take with me.
