Exhaust on eBay

I am going to try to get this as I can't seem to get anything else, wanted to know if my exhaust from a 78 650 will work or if i need to find new ones

That engine should drop right into your KZ650. The KZ750 uses electronic ignition, so you will need the Ignitor from a KZ750. Also, the KZ750 has a different alternator setup. so use the regulator/rectifier from the KZ750 as well. Lastly, the KZ750 uses 630 gauge drive chain. You can use the sprockets and chain from your KZ650, and it will work just fine.

Good luck!

This is what I do for fun, not for work. It is art, with a little engineering thrown in.

Just as an aside, the seller is listing that 750/4 model as being a 1978 year model. The 750/4 wasn't available until 1980 in North America...so just to avoid problems in the future, make sure you know what it is he's selling.

I appreciate the quick response! I just can't find anything local that is in good condition
