Were the carbs slightly smaller on the Z900 compared to the Z1?
Yes, 26mm and 28mm I believeBack in the early 90s in the early days of importing old bikes back from America Weatherley's at Harleston in Norfolk brought back a 1972 750 Kawasaki four, it looked exactly like a Z1.
ps Just been reading up on it, it was called a Z2 and made for the Japanese market so I'm guessing it onced belonged to an American serviceman based in Japan

My Jota is a 1975 (just about)
Interesting! What colour is the frame? I'd keep hold of that if I were you! The earlier ones were quicker too.....
Mine's a '77. In tiny pieces at the moment.
