I'm waiting for a full gasket set, since the weather here's pretty lousy lately... gonna replace most of the gaskets on the kz440, and figured i'd do the rings as well. anyone know a good place to get a set? i tried z1enterprises, and they had rings for the larger kwakas, but not the 440. hmmm.

IMD Pistons have rings for almost any motorcycle.  Unfortunately, they're located in England. Maybe not a problem for you in France.
