This is my 1978 KZ1000 LTD.  I got it from guy in California who got it from his dad, the original owner.  It is great running bike and great looking as well.  But have other bikes and little time.  This one needs regular riding,  I think.
It's paint is less than year old and is done very well.  The fairing is Pacifico fairing, identical to the one had new back in 1978 on my new 1978 KZ1000 LTD.  It has crack in it on the side facing the rider but I'm told that good body shop can fix that.  It doesn't effect how it functions nor how it looks.  I also should be able to provide the original head lamp.
I have had it for about year and it has always run and run well.  At 11,400 miles it has lot of life left in it.  The carbs have recently been cleaned and synced.  I have also had some of the gaskets changed recently as it had very slight oil leak.  No more with the new gaskets. All else works and is in great shape, although the tires are beginning to wear, but otherwise are good.  There is also tear in the seat but it's not very visible and should be easily fixable.
As said, it has always run very well, always started, even cold and is fast as heck.  I will include cold start video in addition to the pics.
I'm in Dallas, Texas and the bike can be picked up here at the buyers expense.  I can recommend motorcycle transport company have used three times now with great success.  Acceptable payment will be by direct deposit into my account, cashiers check or cash.  When that is confirmed, will release the bike to the new buyer or delivery company.
Having trouble getting the video of the cold start to embed here.  So, if you're interested, google cold start 1978 kz1000, and you'll find it.
