anyone know where i can get a clutch handle for a 79 kz 750, also need to know if replacement brake hoses can be made somewhere, i got new bars from a virago, which are a little taller, can't seem to get the handle in a comfortable position without overstretching the hose. thanks..

acyually, the brake line has what looks almost like a big ring connector on the end farthest from the lever/resevior, where it goes to a pivot type point, then from there down to the front caliper, the ones in the link you pointed me to dont seen to have this type of connector.

The brake hoses shown in the front master cylinder parts diagram at kawasaki.com appear to have the usual banjo bolt fitting on at each end.

kawasaki.com shows upper brake hose part no. 43059-007 for 1979 KZ750-B4, which is listed at Z1E:
Click here > www.z1enterprises.com/ItemDetails.aspx?i...50+Z1&item=PM81-3071

A search at Z1E for 43059-033 produced no results for the lower brake hose. But, I would suspect that the lower brake hose, or a suitable substitute, is available at Z1E.

If needed, here's a link for help with navigating kawasaki.com and finding information.
Click here > kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&...w&catid=13&id=376734

When in doubt, would contact Z1E for further info.
