My KZ1000 has been messed with so much that I sometimes wonder if the motor is correct for the frame. I saw recently where someone listed the numbers and got confirmation that it wasnt. Can some one help me do the same.

engine number
KZT00AE110748

neck number
K7T00B-534078

Thanks in advance.

The neck would read KZT00B - that shows an LTD 1000. The 5 in the first position of the number shows the bike was built in Lincoln, Nebraska

534xxx would be manufactured in 1980.

Engine No. Range KZTOOAE092601 - 092900 & KZTOOAE093001 - 110764

Engine No. Location RH top crankcase, below carburetor

Seems this is the correct engine for the frame.....and it looks to be almost the last engine created in the range.
