Kawasaki Z1R.
Thu, 09 Dec 2010
These two beautiful Z1R Kawasakis appeared at the annual Mooneyes Yokohama Custom show last weekend. With one sporting a street/strip look (spot the belly-scraping ride height and rigid rear struts) and the other undergoing a sort of modernisation, they both reminded me just how handsome and unique the original slab-sided Z1R was.
Judging by some of the other wild and weird exhibits I made a mental note to myself: must make sure I'm in Japan this time next year.
