Hi. solving problem with primary chain on z500. engine started after irregular operation. carburetors will certainly be to blame. an unpleasant knock came out of the engine. the primary chain has a clearance of 25-26 mm. I can't get a chain. does anyone know the catalog number or from which motorcycles does it fit? thanks

If the Z500 used the same chain as the KZ550, it is still available new. Here is a link showing the part number, price, and a fitment chart. The chain can be ordered from Partzilla.

I looked at that primary chain. but the z500 is not there. according to the part number, I did not find a single link on the Internet where the kawasaki z500 or kz500 would be listed.

service manual for kawasaki kz500 is simultaneously suitable for kz550 and zx550. if I proceed from this fact, it should fit the kz550. if not I will pay for the mistake.

]From what I have read, only only difference between the two is the piston size, unless you are talking about the 500 twin cylinder.
