Case number decide
21 Sep 2017 14:37 - 21 Sep 2017 14:48
I bought a 77 kz1000 title and vin match but on further inspection I noticed the cylinder jug is marked 903 so I'm assuming the engine has been replaced with a kz900 engine or z1 engine my question is how do I decode the case number to see what year and model this engine came out of this bike seems to be put together from several different bikes

Edit: Your sprocket cover belongs to the later 81 type of motor not the 73- 80 motor type you have.

Thanks for the quick response the more I look at it the more I seem to have a bike made from several different bikes I've been doing a swingarm conversion and just keep noticing parts that don't seen to be correct for a 77 I do have the original paint but I like my 73 green and yellow lol
