The Z650LTD was the first of Kawasaki's LTD-badged 650s, a 1980 touring-styled model that kept the look of the earlier SR. It switched to a single front disc and a rear drum, and was tuned for a little less peak power than the standard bike. The page notes that most variant changes in the series were cosmetic.
