I have a kz650 , KZ1000 and Kz750.

I took the 750 out after two years in the garage. Started right up and runs great.

I have a question because I cant remember. When the headlight is on, the FRONT lights are on as well. Are the rear signal lamps meant to be constantly lit, because, although the signals in the back work, they dont say on when the headlight is on like in the front.

Also, the front left light is out. It comes on to signal, but doesnt stay "on" like the right light. Is that a bulb issue, do you think? If so. what is the replacement bulb for this beast. I havent been on this bike in years!!

Yes, the front lights have dual filaments, one for running light when the headlight is on, and a brighter filament for turn signal. The rear ones are single filament for turn signal only.

I think the single filament bulbs are 1156, and the dual filiments are 1157, but my memory is less reliable than it used to be, so check before purchase.
