Item Details


1978 Kawasaki KZ1000 LTD


25,063 Miles
 
Please watch the video walk-through! 


Up for grabs is this unique 1978 Kawasaki KZ1000LTD! The bike was recently picked out of a garage, brought home, and fired up first kick. The electric start also works as it should. The bike runs through all gears, and seems to shift and stop well. It does break up and pop a little at mid rpm range, but the bike has a sat for a couple of years, so some new plugs and fresh fuel should do it wonders! 

The bike has been repainted a sour apple green by the previous owner. It was painted in a shop, but paint job has a few flaws, mostly on the rear tail. Overall the paint is good, but in case the pictures or video don't show it, it is definitely not a show quality job. There are also some broken cooling fins that can be seen in
both the pictures and the video. Bike could also use new fork seal dust covers, as seen in pics.

I would suggest going through this bike once purchased. New fresh fluids, a rear tire, chain , things of that nature. With that being said, this will bike run and ride down the road as is. Front tire seems solid, rear tire will need to be replaced. Both side covers are missing, and no other parts are included in the sale. 

If you have any questions PLEASE ASK!
 This is a solid, fast bike and would make a great candidate for drag project , or sleeper to hit the streets with.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.

2013 AMA Supercross Anaheim 2 Race Report

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Ryan Villopoto claimed his first win of the 2013 AMA Supercross season and his first since the knee injury at last year’s Seattle round that kept him out of the 2012 AMA Motocross championship. The victory in front of 37,789 fans at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif., made up for his disappointing 16th place finish two weeks earlier at the same site. His Monster Energy Kawasaki teammate Jake Weimer held the early advantage in the main event, taking the holeshot ahead of the Honda Muscle Milk duo of Justin Barcia and Trey Canard.

The North East,Prescott and fast laps with Chris Walker at Mallory

Thu, 26 Apr 2012

A big thanks to all at Newcastle Motorcycles for lending me a Honda CB1000F on Saturday to do nothing other than join mates for a blast round some fantastic roads in the North East. The buddies in question were Alan Smith (Bradley’s dad) and two stroke addict and race fan Chris Berriman. We headed east over the moors from the ‘Toon’ heading towards Barnard Castle then back through Consett before finishing up at the picturesque Tynemouth.
