Kawasaki Other description

Up for sale is a 1983 Kawasaki KZ750-K1 LTD in good condition. Tires are still good and the paint is still glossy. The frame has the normal small rust spots you would expect for a 30 year old bike, but they are surface spots only. Since I have owned it, the bike has always been garaged. Mileage reads 16554, but the true mileage is unknown and the current title states as such. I've owned the bike since 2000 and I've only put a few thousand miles on it since then, so it's probably not off by that much. I believe the speedo cable broke on a previous owner and that's the reason for the unknown listing on the title. Speedo was working again by the time I bought the bike.

This model is a belt drive and has both the electric start and kick start.

Currently the bike does not run, as there is no battery in it. I've hooked it up to a battery charger to verify that lights and the electrical work. You will need to do some minor carb work to it. I had done the carbs a few years ago with a carb kit (gaskets, springs, float needles and float screws), but something must have been put back together backwards because I was able to start the bike and have it idle, but when you went to give it gas, it would stall. 

Included with the bike is a spare drive belt. There is also a sissy bar with a padded passenger back rest that was not on the bike when the photos were taken. There is also one small tear in the seat below the Kawasaki logo. You will also need to change the oil and flush out any old gas still in the tank.

If you know your way around carbs, this would be a great starter bike for short money. If you have one of these or are looking to rebuild one you currently have, this would be a great parts bike for you if you'd rather not fix the carbs.


Payment must be in cash or certified bank check only. Buyer to arrange pickup and bike must be picked up within 2 weeks of the end of the auction please. No trades considered.

South West Motorcycle Show 2010, August 28th & 29th

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

Need something to do on August Bank Holiday weekend, then read below: "Although the South West Motorcycle Show has been running at the Westpoint Arena for the last sixteen years, 2010 is the first year that the show hosts the all-new Vertical Trix European Stunt Championship. The show contains all the usual attractions that have been delivered to motorcyclists from over the south-west and further afield since 1994 – including all the appropriate trade stands, and with strong support from local dealers – plus attractions such a a dyno on site, restaurant, bar, bike displays, live music and of course the live action arena. Although the action in the show arena has previously been stunt displays, rather than a full-on competition.

Put a sting in your 2010 Z1000's tail

Fri, 19 Feb 2010

SCORPION has released an all-new new silencer for the 2010 Kawasaki Z1000.   The slip-on silencer requires no additional modifications: bolt on and go.Consistent power improvements throughout the rev range have been seen, with no adjustments to the fuelling, say Scorpion, with an average increase 3bhp.The new silencer has been acoustically developed to provide a greatly enhanced engine note.  This means the bike will be as loud as the original in terms of a dB reading, but the exhaust note offers a deeper growl. However, removable baffles allow the rider to dramatically alter the tone of the exhaust by simply removing one bolt per silencer.

2014 Kawasaki KLR650 New Edition Revealed

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

Kawasaki revealed an updated version of its popular KLR650 dual-sport at the New York International Motorcycle Show. The new KLR650 isn’t exactly a full model-year replacement as Kawasaki had already announced the 2014 model; instead Kawasaki is calling it the KLR650 New Edition, offering it for a retail price of $6,599, a $100 premium over the “old edition” KLR650. The extra Benjamin Franklin gets you new springs for both front and rear suspension, multi-contour dimpled seat and revised graphics.
