Rectifier swap question was created by 77Davo650
Does anyone happen to know offhand if a rectifier from a 1977 KZ400 will work on a 1977 KZ650c1? They both are the seperate reg/rect but the one I have from the 400 is different except that it looks to be the same wiring setup (except the stator wires are white instead of yellow)

Thanks!

77 KZ650 C1 (sold)
78 KZ650 B2 (sold)
78 KZ400 B1 (sold)
78 kz400 C1 (resto-mod)
78 kz400 C1 (hardtail low chop)
couple of possible project kz's in parts

21061-31 is the rectfier part #. Used only on the 1977 KZ650B1 and C1. Other rectifiers could work, but no other Kawasaki used the exact part.

321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

The part number will be different from minor differences. Sometimes the part number is different just from wires being a different length.

I believe the 77 400 and 77 650 use a very similar rectifier (and even a similar regulator). it may be worth a try.

You could also make one for about $20.
