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.

Report: Dorna to Replace Superstock Classes with More Stock-Inspired WSBK and New 250cc Class

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

The coming World Superbike racing season may be the last to feature Superstock classes as series promoter Dorna tries to differentiate its WSBK and MotoGP properties. According to Italian outlet Motosprint, Dorna plans to rewrite the World Superbike and Supersport class rulebooks for the 2014 season to make the race bikes closer to their respective production models. This would create further separation between WSBK and MotoGP, with Superbike racing moving closer to its production-based roots while prototypes racing in the GP series.

WSBK 2013: Moscow Race Report

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Marco Melandri captured his third win of the season, the Ducati 1199 Panigale scored its first podium while Sylvain Guintoli regained the championship lead despite dislocating his collarbone days before the race. But the big news at Moscow Raceway of course was the tragic death of Andrea Antonelli in the World Supersport race. The opening-lap crash in severely wet conditions naturally led to the cancellation of the rest of the events as the World Superbike community mourns the loss of the 25-year-old Antonelli.

In addition to the upgraded basic version, the SE version with semi-active suspension is presented. For the 2019 model year, the asphalt tourer, built around a 1,043cc (120 hp and 102 Nm) inline-four, received an electronic throttle, cruise control, KTRC traction control, and Sport, Road, Rain and Rider power modes to choose from. Moreover, the introduction of the IMU inertial sensor, according to Japanese designers, made the electronics work more delicately than before.
