Kawasaki Other description

 1978 or 79 KZ1000 LTD....I think, but im not sure.
Frame # kzt00b-516766
Engine # KZT00AE 079198

I bought this bike about a year and a half ago in hopes of building something super cool. Well, I dont have the time or space, so here it is.
I do not have a title for it. Bill of sale only. If this is a problem do not bid.
The parts alone are worth more than the opening bid, but I dont have the heart to part it out. Some one built it and loved it. I was even told by the person I bought it from that it was in a magazine when it was first finished. He also said it easily out ran his modern FJR1300 .Although it may be best used for parts or a great donor motor. When I first bought it I put a battery and fuel to it and it fired and ran. I tried today when I pulled it out of storage and it would not start. .The list of parts is as follows to the best of my knowledge. Again, I bought it with no paperwork and it still has no paperwork.

MTC 1327 Big Bore kit ( which requires case machining )
 "J" Model Head ( no idea of porting)
Cams ( Bike has Web Cams decals but I dont know what is in it)
MRE Lock up clutch
36mm Mikuni Flatslides
Dyna 2000 Ignition
D&D Pipe
 Braced and Gusseted frame
17" Wheels from unknown
Looks like a GS1150 swingarm to me
Floating rotors
4 piston calipers up front
Marzochi Shocks
Dunstall one piece body ( inside liner has failed and will need to be re done)
Tommaselli  clip ons

ZX-10R. Worth the weight?

Thu, 18 Nov 2010

The whisper on pit lane is that 2011 will be a good year for the green K. Our moles within the racing circles tell us that apart from more power and less weight (always handy), the new ZX-10R's main advantage is not these two factors but rather its improved weight distribution, weight transference qualities and grip levels. Studying Tom Syke's lap time data from Kawasaki's public test sessions it seems it's much easier for him to maintain consistent fast lap times back-to-back over the whole range of tyre degradation and fuel load changes.

Kawasaki Patents Design for Naked Single

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Kawasaki has registered a design patent for what appears to be a naked version of its recently revealed 250cc single-cylinder Ninja RR Mono. While the Ninja RR Mono (also known in some markets as the Ninja 250SL) is produced for the Asian market, the new design is registered with the European Union’s Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market, making it more likely to arrive in western markets. The detailed design renderings reveal many clues indicating this is a naked version of the RR Mono.
