Thanks for all the replies my bike is a 1980 csr 750 twin. The cluster i found is for a 1980 kz 750 ltd it don't say if it's for the twin or 4 tho. If the brackets the same and dash is the same i,can always change the gauges out. I didn't think there would be much of a difference from a 1980 csr 750 and a 1980 kz 750

Well what I did for 20 bucks I ordered them because I need the indicators and bracket for it anyway so to me the bracket and dash indicator are worth 20 bucks so it the gauges work great if not not a big deal I'll order the correct ones. And if these don't work I'll re list them to get my money back.

I just put up the page link in my last post. Selling on eBay is a PITA. If you're new, they will hold your money for 10 days or until the buyer signs of on it.

I have sold on ebay before but for 20 bucks I'm not gonna complain really if i can't use the gauges that's fine as long as the bracket and stuff works I'll be happy with the purchase cuz right now there is no cluster on the bike I also have to order a tach cable it was cut off at the motor hopefully it didn't strip anything. I kicked the bike and it ran for a little I just gotta clean the carbs he also said that the starter needs to be rebuilt so I'll have to rebuild it

It is pretty rare for a starter to go out on a KZ. Much more common is a worn starter clutch. Do you know what the symptoms are?

The 750-CSR Twin is a 1982 model. In 1980 there was 750-G1 Ltd II Twin. The bike in the photo appears to be an 82.

So I got it running but noticed the carbs seem wierd and I noticed the exhaust says kz750m and the bike is a 1982 so now I gotta start fixing things but my issue is the carbs it has mikuni carbs on it now and they look much different from the other sets I have that came with. So it's a bit annoying fixing all the junk the previous owner messed up

Looks like the ones with the chrome tops are the ones for your bike. Do the thumb test on the carbs to check the diaphragms.
