LTD models
05 Sep 2019 15:30
Hi,
I have a KZ200, love it. Looking for something bigger now though. A KZ400 would be good, but I never see them. I keep seeing the KZ440LTD though. What's the deal there? Looks like it has a different frame with a lower seat. Is that correct? I really don't like the low seat cruiser look, can they be changed easily to look like a normal upright stance or is the frame too different?
The other option I'm looking at is a Yamaha XS400. Looks like there might be more parts and customisations available off the shelf for the XS400 than the KZ440LTD. What are everyone's thoughts?
Thanks

Get a KZ650, way more power handle better and parts are easier to find.

The rear of the 440 Ltd frame is angled upwards & there isn't an easy solution. search EB for KZ440 frame. A 550 Ltd frame is angled in a similar manner. In general seats don't swap between different models, especially between an Ltd & Standard.
