Fwiw, kawasaki.com shows same part number for both 1978 and 1979 KZ200 inner fork tubes.

Hold your cursor over 'KZ Information' in the top menu and click 'Filebase' - on the new page click 'Submit File', there you go.

Does anyone know what other forks will fit the KZ200? I've been searching for a replacement set of tubes with very little luck. I was thinking about going with KZ400 tubes

1978 KZ200
1996 Harley XL1200
1987 S10 Blazer
1983 Chris Craft Scorpion.
I guess I should buy something from this century
