Lester Mag Wheels. Model Swap? was created by 650Dude

Does anyone know if 19 front 18 rear Lester Mags from a 1977 Kawasaki KZ650 will fit a 1977 KZ1000 or 1977 KZ 1000LTD?

Why they made LTD's I dont know. So damn ugly!

18" rear lesters I think would be hard to find pard. It wasn't in style back in the olden days. I bought my 900 in 76 because I didn't want a spaghetti bowling ball, and was tired of walking because of my 64 police pan. It was definitely a Money taker and a fart breaker.

Well Ed, I think that pic you posted is one NICE looking bike! I wish my 81 had that duckbill tail section.

Dave, what seat are you referring to? I went to Z1E web site and only had seat latches pop when I searched the term "seat". I like my stock seat, but new and different is sometimes appealing too if I can keep my butt planted when I turn this animal loose.

The Z1Ent seat I was reffering thttps://www.z1enterprises.com/seat-assembly-complete-z2-z1-w-strap.htmlo will not fit 81s. Fitment ends at 1980
Currently out of stock , but Nice look .
Les Holt has one I have checked out in person . Very nice lines and shallow dip to hold you in place

I like that seat. I assume it won't fit because of the duckbill rear section. Not to hijack this thread, I posted a new topic about adding in the duckbill on a J bike.

LOL, now that's funny. I fail to see the connection, but still funny.

Not to worry, by the time you get done with your "improvements", this will be the only thing on my LTD that you might catch a glimpse of.
