KZ1K = KZ1000A? Correct? ... short version: maybe the KZ305 P/N 41032-022
The wheel diagram for the KZ1000A at Partzilla lists the 87-88 KZ305 in the x-ref for the front spoke assys (spokes w nipples). But the KZ305 diagram lists the nipples separately: the spokes have the same part number as the 1000 & the nipples are P/N 41032-022 listed as NLA.
That 3-digit -022 suffix seems like it might be an early part number. The nipples for my 81 KZ650-CSR are -1005. There's a lot/qty of 19 of KZ305 nipples on EB & they're gold in color, not silver. item #321436220273

Will agree that most of the parts lists I have access to do show the spoke and nipple as a single part #. This is true for models other than the 900 and 1000 machines.
From the kawasaki site I did find a listing for the wheels on the 1981 CSR 650, which lists spokes and nipples as different part #s It shows 2 different part #s for the nipples 41232-022 and 41232-1055 this is also true for the 1980 KZ250. There may well be others but have not researched it further.

Every parts manual & aftermarket site we've looked at lists spokes and nipples as a set.
Would the book Original Kawasaki by David Marsden have anything about the spokes?
gd4now: there might be some errors in your part numbers.

Martin, the Kaw site lists a CSR and I assumed it was the 650, but it could be the 1000 and it has the part #s I posted.

The KZ1000-CSR wheels are the same as the KZ650-CSR.
There's also a KZ750-CSR Twin which has the same nipples but the wheels & spokes are different.
You listed 41232-022 and 41232-1055? Partzilla has 41032-022 and 41032-1005. maybe all those numbers are valid?

I have no idea what is and is not correct, it could be all are correct or none are. I do have another list of the CSR 650s but it does not show any info on spokes or wheels other than the cast wheels for the H3. Not claiming any knowledge on the H 650 models as I do not have one and you do. Rather what the Kaw site showed, do not mean it is correct at all.

CMSNL has some - not sure how many but the site let me add 40 of them to the cart.
Unfortunately they're $3 each.
