Here's what the 2004 Handbook gives on the tourer dimensions:



There's actually an error in the drawing regarding ground clearance. Clearly, the ZT-T and the 75-T can't have the same ground clearance (G 156mm) as shown, when the ZT-T height (C) is 7mm lower than the 75-T.

However, replacing the 75's wheels with a larger diameter ZT rim doesn't alter the drive height/clearance. All the 75/ZT rims provide essentially the same diameter wheels to maintain a legal speedometer. The extra rim diameter is compensated by a reduced tyre wall.
