KZ1100 Shaft Drive Wheel Upgrade??? was created by Wildman1024
Just wondering if there is a wheel that can be used to upgrade from the 16" to like a 18" on the KZ1100 Shaft Drive?

I was thinking the same thing. I have a 79 KZ1000 shaft I'm parting out and I was going to try swapping the rears out. I don't know if it will swap directly over or if the final gear assembly needs to be swapped.

That would certainly be an up-grade.
I opted to lower the rear of my 1100 with 12.5" Progressive shocks, which dramatically improved the handling IMO.
