Kawasaki Other description

1981 Kawasaki KZ440

Condition: Runs and drives good with freshly painted frame and tank (no rust inside). 

1. Frame and tank painted black with many other parts powder coated black.
2. Brand new pair of Mikuni VM 32 Carbs, pods and throttle cable $400 only 350 miles on them.
3. New shorty levers and master cylinder
4. New rear shocks 
5. New handmade retro headlight 
6. New speedo and mount 
7. New rear blinkers 
8. Newish tires pry about 500 miles on them.
9. Rizoma bars 
10. New Mac Exhaust

Overall - the bike is in good condition and I have added some upgrades. I added brand new Mikuni  slide carbs and I have driven the bike about 500 miles since I  purchased it with zero issues. 

This would be a good base for a cafe or brat build as it is mechanically sound. 

What is needed: It will need larger main jets as it runs a little rich and it will also need the seat to be upholstered. 

I also have tons of original parts (fenders, shocks, tach, speedo, gaskets and new old stock parts) that will be included in the sale. 

NOTE: Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up.

EICMA 2013: 2014 Kawasaki Z1000 First Impressions Video

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

“It looks kind of angry!” That pretty much sums up what Editor-in-Chief Kevin Duke thinks of Kawasaki‘s newly redesigned Z1000 and its “sugomi” design philosophy. And for those of you who feel turned off by today’s machines and their dependance on the latest electronics, Kawasaki says the Z1000 does not have traction control because they want to keep it raw and untamed.
