front rotor size 1977 kz 650 ? was created by indianajames
got some 77 1000 forks, then some 77 650 spoke rims , then a front 650 caliper , all from ebey at diff times about a year ago . rear did fine after swapping 1000 sprocket hub with a 650 sprocket hub. the front rim came with rotor , the front rim mounted to forks fine but the caliper bolted to forks fine except the rotor is too tall by about 1/2 an inch . all this is going on a 77 650 . my question is,, do i need different rotor or caliper ?

I didn't measure a 1000 rotor while I was there,but I brought the fork tubes and caliper back with me I can measure if it helps.
I think mine is a 79-80 front end,it had a wire front wheel with caliper behind fork leg.
