Rear wheel Q

#1 PostAuthor: Charlie » Sat Aug 05, 2017 5:38 pm

Hi guys
Aside from the old Z750 twin - of which there were very few then and even less now, did/does any period Kawasaki Z have a spoked rear wheel but with the 4 bolt DISC mount ?
Everything I can find is rear drum ?? :(
Why do I persist in debating with idiots ? I really should know better :)

Not sure but I'd guess he Z650 would.

Z650 (steel) spoked wheels are all drum type unfortunately. The disc models have alloys. :(

My 1978 'KZ1000 A2' is fitted with a spoked rear wheel that has the four bolt disc mounted.
