Welcome to KZR that is one .beautiful bike you have, and what part of the boot are you from?
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

Looks like you have some SITO 4-4 exhaust on.

@mopguy I’m from Asti (Langhe land of wine)
@scirocco, not Sito but one of many little manufacturers of aftermarket parts here in Italy, handlebar came from Tomaselli, seat from Giuliari and footrest from Menani

Hi Gianni & Scirocco. I'm from Louisville, KY and just bought a 76 KZ900LTD with a Sito exhaust. In all my searching, your mentions are the only thing I can find on the internet about them, except scooter pipes. Would either of you (or anyone else reading) happen to know the manufacturer's name and where they are located? A couple of pictures are attached of my bike.
