I have the manual on my computer file and can send it to you for free if you PM me with your Email address. It's photo copys of the original 78 shop manual and it's big , about 50 kb JD 78 KZ1000 A2A The following user(s) said Thank You: KZ1000inaus

It's 50Mb so unlikely my email will accept that. There are a few ways of sending large files to people they are free send files sites. I have used them before but i cant remember which one. Do you want me to look into it again and let you know or did you find a way of sending?

Meanwhile, perhaps this one from KZr's FILEBASE would help:

$60 for a Clymers (Non OEM) manual... :pinch:

Naw, don't think so...

Besides, the FREE Z1/KZ900 OEM Manual in the file base is ~ 98% the same up to 1980 KZ1000...

Sure, the wiring diagram which you can get free (Google Images) and some other minor differences but hell, pretty much everything is reverse compatible to swap parts on... Good enough!
