Well, the later models (can't tell exactly when it started) had a lettering on the back and the seat does have a different plate below (different form) - at least to what I know.

Can anyone confirm (or do oyu know different) ?

regards,

The 1979 KZ U.S. model came equipped with the 160 MPH speedo. 1980 and afterwards KZ's came equipped with the 85 MPH clock.
