Kawasaki Z1R t/c description
I have decided to sell my dream bike of my younger years. If you know what your looking at and your youth was in the late 70's and early 80's this bad boy was likely on your wish list along with Farrah Fawcett and the Whale Tail 930 Turbo Porsche. Next to Farrah this was the wildest thing you could throw a leg over! What more could a bulletproof wild child ask for?
Make no mistake this bike was the things fantasies were made of and the tool required to make them come true.Much like the efforts that delivered the Shelby to Ford, Motion and Balwin cars to Chevrolet and the Hurst Hemi's to mother Mopar, Turbo Cycle and Kawasaki teamed up to build a two wheeled rocket that would clean the clocks and wallets of whoever stepped up to the line against it. This bike is all original with a copy of the original sales certificate registered in the archives of Turbo Cycle confirming this is the matching numbers motor and frame and truly one of the original 250 produced. All original manuals are included as are all original parts less the Warblo fuel pump that was long gone when I bought the bike nearly 10 years ago. The bike is shown with and currently runs a newer Mikuni flat slide and K&N air filter but the original Zenith carb and triangle air filter are included. The bike is shown with the white tank emblems and shorter LTD shocks on the rear but again the originals are included and in excellent condition. The bike has newer tires, battery and had one quality repaint years before I bought it with new original Molly Graphics. This is not a kit/clone or wanna be-its the undisputed real deal that any collector or museum would be proud to own and display. The bike runs great and is a piece of styling art to behold. Mad Max would be proud to spool it up down under. When this old girl comes on the boost you better have your toes under the shifter and brake levers and a firm grip on the bars because just like when you hit hyperspace playing Space Invaders things are going to get blurry in a hurry. This thing is no game or toy-it is still scary fast. While I had had the privilege of owning I have displayed it a many vintage / classic bike shows and was honored to be invited to display it at the AMA display and the Kawasaki featured marque display at Mid-Ohio Vintage Bike Days a few years back. The bike deserves to be on display and in the hands of a curator to insure this piece of history is enjoyed and around for years to come. If you have questions (and money) you are welcome to call 9am-9pm Eastern Time. Please interested and serious buyer inquiries only. Delivery to Mid-Ohio Vintage Bike Days is possible for a small fee. I will sell world wide but all shipping arrangements and expenses are the buyers responsibility. Short term storage is no problem and free for up to 1 month. I don't need any help or am I desperate to sell so please- NO INSULTS, TRADED, SOLICITORS OR LOW-BALL OFFERS. |

Will the road-going RCV look like this?
Thu, 25 Oct 2012Honda announced in a dry-as-you-like press release that a new bike was coming. Not another motorcycle-cum-medical aid like the DN-01 or Integra, this is going to be a proper bike. A bike in a similar vein to previous bikes in the RC series, the RC30, RC45 and RC51, aimed squarely at winning races. So what's it going to look like?
