 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

Who To Watch In AMA Pro SuperSport

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

America’s road racing champions of tomorrow are racing in AMA Pro SuperSport today, and their season kicks off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway. With events on both Friday and Saturday, there are plenty of chances for glory for the 48 competitors entered. AMA Pro SuperSport is the most unpredictable class and the racing gives a chance for riders in the large fields to step up and prove they have what it takes. A great example is reigning AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike Champion and current SuperBike pilot Cameron Beaubier, who cut his teeth in his two-victory, two-pole season in 2010.

Kawasaki Vulcan SS

Mon, 28 Dec 2015

Jesse Bassett from the GasBox workshop became a contender for the title of Kawasaki designer. As part of the Breaking Boundaries Build-Off program, the evergreen brand offered him and five other designers to try their hand at tuning the Vulcan S. Without hesitation, Bassett cut the rear fender, installed a new seat, a long shock absorber and wheels.

You want a nice little car, you do.

We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.
