Original, OEM, NOS cylinder head nuts for all 1973 thru 1980 900 & 1000 models......(See item below for original 1973 Z-1 style nuts).... Those old, rusted cylinder head nuts really take away from the look of a Kaw motor......Each engine uses 12.... These are not cheap, so just replace the outer 4 that are easily seen if you'd prefer.... Just remove them 1 at a time; install a new copper washer, thread on the new nut and re-torque to 30 ft. lbs........ The inner 8 nuts use a plain 10mm flat washer under them..... We also carry a better than original 10mm copper seal washer (used under the outer 4 nuts).....Replace them while you're at it.... In Stock at Redline Cycle

Flat-flange "short" style head nut......... Only available in sets of 12............ $109.00 set Special Order Only - 2 to 4 week wait Note: The "short" style early Z-1 head nuts were replaced with the later "tall" type due to their insufficient thread depth......... At proper torque specs, the cylinder stud will bottom on the nut prior to properly compressing the head gasket - This will cause oil leaks at the head gasket..... These are sold for restoration purposes..... The "tall" nuts shown above replaced the short style in the Kawasaki part system late in 1973..... |
