If you are talking about wheel bearings, then any industrial supply place should have them in stock, all you need is the four digit number like "6305", "6302", etc, and it might be in the wheel bearing list in the Filebase under the KZ Information tab at the top of the page.

I just checked the bearing list in the Filebase, and it only lists a 83 KZ1100A1.
It uses 6302-2RS front and 6304-2RS rear.
The "-2RS" means it is sealed on both sides of the bearing.

I don't lnow if the same part numbers cover the 81 though, you can check kawasaki.com parts diagrams to see.

Correct; RS stands for rubber seal. Take samples to your local industrial bearing supplier (seals and bearings), they can match them up immediately and give you the same if not better quality components.
