ROTORS

I've looked at various places for my rotors and NO LUCK. I have a 78 KZ1000 LTD MKII, they are the 4 bolt mount and it looks like front and rear rotors are the same.
Somebody link me up with a seller/supplier pls

Looks like you have an ltd not a MK11. The ltd has a bigger rotor than a standard kz. Not sure about the MK11.

I am not aware of anyone selling refurbed or new rotors for your bike...and as useless as this might sound, watch eBay...but the kicker being, what you buy will be used. BTW if you have a 1978 year model bike, then you have 1979/1980 rotors on your bike as they are drilled. The 1978 LTD had solid rotors.

The frame was cut just behind the tank and lowered 2'in the front and 4' in the back. I hand made the seat to match the frame rails. It has a flat trailer fender welded on. I mounted a Maltese cross taillight with 2 small bullet lights on each side of the fender as extra taillights. I'm going to remake the seat with a little more pad. I painted it with small Model paint spray cans (Black/Blue metallic) it actually looks Purple. I modified a pair of cb650c sidecovers to fit the frame. I have to give credit to my friend Paul Conklin (Maxchopper) in Salisbury,NC for konging the frame.
