Aren the older KZ models and the ZN Voyager models basically the same bike except for fuel injection and the fact that the Voyager only comes full dress?
In reference to the KZ being the same bike as a Voyager except no fuel injection, for those that have not owned both bikes take note. The 79′ – 82′ KZ and later model ZG bikes (European) are totally different than the ZN Voyager models. They share almost no parts except the engine, and even that is quite a bit different in some respects. The Voyager has an entirely different frame that has a much lower seat height, larger tires and entirely different electronics than the older KZ’s. The ZN alternators will swap with an 82’/83′ KZ, but only an 82’/83′ model as 81′ and older bikes are different than the 82’s in these respects. The Voyager has fuel injection versus carb’s yes, but the Voyager also has different cam timing, and it has a smaller clutch in it, and the clutch cover was smaller accordingly to make more foot room on the right side I suppose. The moved the oil sight glass to the left side, and changed the left side-cover to install a sight glass, and possibly made some other cha
