Here's a wiring diagram
Make sure you thank Michael (Mcdroid) for that wiring diagram. He's gathered a LOT of wiring diagrams for us!
1976 Z750 B1
1980 Z1000 MkII A4

Kawasaki used this same fundamental engine in a number of 750 platforms and the wiring diagrams differ slightly. There may also be problems with the info we have regarding the engine VIN numbers. For example the range of motor VINs for 1982 Z750's ranges roughly between 62000 and 78000. I have a 1982 KZ750R1 (GPz model) w/original motor w/VIN of approx. 81000, clearly out of range but correct...suggesting our database may be suspect. You need to verify what your frame VIN is if you absolutely need a diagram to be specific to your bike model. If its not important, then what Stein (KZRider) supplied will work

Ron is correct, but I think you have the engine/frame numbers reversed. The engine number would start with KZ650BE and the other number is the frame. Another place to find the year & model for each frame iin on the later Kawasaki Factory Service Manuals. Also try this link for lots of good KZ650 info:

Oh, and don't forget to send some pics.
