The '''[[Kawasaki]] ZN700 LTD Shaft''' was a in-line four, [[four-stroke]] standard produced by [[Kawasaki]] from 1984 to 1985. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 72.42 HP (54.0 KW) @ 9500 RPM. 
 
 
==Overview==
[[Kawasaki]] modified the KZ model  to create the '''ZN700 LTD,''' which squeaks in at 694cc to get just under the 700cc-threshold imposed by the [[1980s motorcycle tariff]]. In 1987, [[Harley-Davidson]] petitioned for an early end to the 5-year tariff (tax) and 750 Japanese bikes were back in full force, thus giving the ZN 700 a short production cycle.
 
==Engine==
The engine was a [[air cooled]] in-line four, four-stroke. A 64.0mm [[bore]] x 54.0mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 694.0 cubic centimeters. Fuel was supplied via a double overhead cams/twin [[cam]] (dohc). 
 
==Drive==
The bike has a 5-speed transmission. Power was moderated via the wet plate. 


==Chassis==
It came with a 110/90-18 61h front [[tire]] and a 130/90-16 67h rear tire. Stopping was achieved via double disc. single piston calipers in the front and a single disc in the rear. The front suspension was a  telescopic fork while the rear was equipped with a swing arm with dual air adjustable shocks. The ZN700 LTD Shaft was fitted with a 3.67 Gallon (13.90 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 478.4 pounds (217.0 Kg). The wheelbase was 59.45 inches (1510 mm) long. 




American sports model with shaft drive. Front dual disc and rear disc brakes, air adjustable front fork, air and damping force adjustable rear shock absorbers. Electric starter and transistorized ignition system.
