Thanks man, The front hub on the 79′ has holes on both sides so all i had to do is get an 18″ rim, spokes and an extra rotor to get it set up.

That’s exactly what I’m looking for and I’ve been researching to no end, everyone just suggests a complete front swap.

I would really appreciate the input.

I just read some more about it on the APE website. I think i’m going go with it as well for my KZ750. Just seems to make sense.

I like the manual cam chain tensioner because of it’s simplicity. Installation and adjustment is really easy. Installing the automatic tensioner is not a fun task and requires special magic spells for it to fit properly. I also think you need to listen to the engine while doing the adjustment.
