I've got the factory KZ650 manual, as mentioned in my New Members' thread. It's part #99924-1007-03 and covers (1978)B1A, D1A, (1979) B3, C3, D2,(1980) B4, C4, D3, E1 and F1. It's really weird if you think about how the model sequencing ran when you look at the chart on the back cover.....Why is there no C2 or C2A shown ?? And what's with the "A" suffix for some 1978 models ?? And why wouldn't they put the 1976 and 1977 models in this manual ?? Or is there a separate manual covering JUST those years ??
Regardless....I would be willing to scan this for posting somewhere BUT....this sucker has 300+ pages and I don't want to cut off the spine to feed it through a high speed scanner. Sooooo....scanning will have to be done one page at a time.....aaaaaannndddd....that will have to wait until next fall/winter when I get laid off from my day job.:(
Stay tuned for further developments in Fall '07.....
Is there anyone out there that can explain the inconsistencies in the model chart on the back of this manual ??

Is there a 76 KZ900 service manual that is worth downloading? Or are all these just the owners manual?

The KZ900 Shop Manual linked in the first post of this thread is the official Kawasaki Repair Manual. It covers most everything you need for routine and serious maintenance. So yes, I think it's worth downloading.
The files are huge pdf's, and if you can't download them, I'll send you the same thing on CD. Free. Well, you have to pay it forward with a good deed to a fellow rider. Send me a PM with your address if you want it.

shop Manual Kawasaki KZ750 B-Twin Years Covered: 1975 - 1980. Here is the download link if someone needs this.

I now have the manual for the KZ750 Twin 1982 with the CSR Twin supplement if any body needs it also. This may also help with the 1982 KZ750-M1 CSR Twins which thanks to RonJones tells me they are very similar.

WG,I'd love to get a copy of the KZ1000 J-model manual if it's in electronic format. I can find a place to upload and download it or ? I have an electronic copy of a Concours manual with most of the yearly addendums to it in PDF format, it's about 200mb. I can share that as well if anyone is interested.
