Also check the sizes. 16 rear was popular, but some prefer 18 rear. The Lester fronts also came in 18 or 19 (19 is correct for the A4).
$400 is a good price for a GOOD set.Make sure they are for the Kawasaki (some people just assume they fit the Kaws) Put new wheel bearings in to be safe.
BTW, I paid $35 for my set (just bragging- :whistle:)The front is a 6 bolt Z-1 and the speedo drive had to be altered to get the wheel to fit the A4 forks.

Can cracks in the drums be fixed. Also when I spin it, if it is out can that be fixed
For the price, they shouldnt need to be fixed.
They can be fixed, but it will be pricey.

I do have a 900LTD front end.
At the risk of offending, the 76 LTD mags are true Morris mags...might it be easier to look for a rear wheel from a 76 LTD?

The LTD is a disc brake rear.

The story I have is that Kawasaki contracted with Morris for the 1976 KZ900B model. In 1977, Kawasaki copied the basic design (=Enkei) for the LTD series and used those on all KZ1000B bikes. Note that Enkei mags very closely resemble Morris mags:)

My understanding is that the 76 KZ900 LTD was the first KZ with mags, and Kawasaki used the Morris mags, the following year they went to Enkei for the mags.The LTD is a disc brake rear.
They are Morris mags? I thought they were enkei's?
I think the dealer installed Morris Mag option for the 76-79 KZ 750 twins used the same wheels as the KZ900 LTD, 3.00x16 rear, and 2.15x19 front, no hard evidence to back this up though.
