Hi Guys, has anyone any idea what year cast wheels were used on the Z1000, i have them on mine 1977 Z1000a1 but don't think they are standard, cheers

You may have a Z1000A2 as the front forks are from one :!:

What size is your back wheel :?:

Looks like a 16 inch from a LTD :!:

Rear mudguard looks like an LTD :!:

You may have a bitsa :?:

I have an original dealer advertising brochure for the A1 from 77 and it doesn't show any pictures with alloys fitted or list them as an 'option'.
