SteveF, when you say Z900, are you refering to Z900A4 or Z1 series? I believe they are both different from the Kh500 caliper, however, you may find the Z1 series may fit with respect to front forks holding-bolt centre distances. The KH500 may also have ribs (Cooling?) cast into the body. There were several small changes between these models. For example, the piston/ pad size may be smaller on Kh500.
