Kawasaki GPZ description

Amazing bike, very rare. One of the hottest bikes of the 80's and able to beat most 650 and 750 class bikes. Only selling because I had some medical expenses come up and I have a touring bike that I use more often. I hate to let the bike go but I need the money.

Done by previous owner within the last year at Kawasaki dealer:
Front forks serviced
Carbs cleaned and rebuilt with Dynojet stage 1 kit
KN air filter in airbag
Fresh Oil and filter
Ignition Timing set
Stainless front brake lines
Brakes flushed and new pads. Calipers cleaned and inspected
Brand new tires, still have the hairs on them except in the exact center of the tire.
I put less than a hundred miles on them...
New grips
Cables lubricated
New battery
Professional White paint job in clear coat and extremely expensive correct decal kit applied under clear coat.
New plugs and boots

Done by me last month:
Slight corrosion in fuse holder cleaned up
Cleaned carbs and checked fuel level
Small crack in air box sealed
Timing chain adjuster cleaned and freshly lubricated
Checked valve clearance and learned that it is out of spec and needs smaller valve shims
The good news is the cams are great. It has the hottest cam profile for the GPZ, the one with two grooves in the cam shaft.
Tank cap/vent system cleaned and reassembled
Checked tank for rust, no rust in carbs or tank was found

I have a clear title for the bike as well as the original service manual with most of the early service recorded in it.

The bike starts and runs excellent. It has flat power above 6k RPM until it's warmed up, which is consistent with the valves needing an adjustment and/or needing a new coil. There is no rust in the commonly rusted area where the rear suspension is. There is chipped paint and surface rust on the center stand which is normal.

Priced to move fast

Motorcycle Sidecar is Literally a Car

Tue, 21 Jul 2009

Adjectives fail me.  This almost seems like one of those sci-fi movies where an evil scientist tries to cross two deadly animals together to create the ultimate killing machine. So what are we looking at?  It seems to be the deformed love child of a Citroën Xantia and a Kawasaki 1000 RX. This custom project, called “Snaefell“, cost its creator about 15000 Euros and 10 years of part time work.

Kawasaki ZX-10R Race SCU For Öhlins Mechatronic Steering Damper

With an upgraded Öhlins’ Race SCU (Suspension Control Unit), the Öhlins OEM-fitted steering damper on 2013-14 Kawasaki ZX-10Rs can now be ramped up to race mode. The Race SCU is programed to transform the Öhlins Mechatronic, electronically controlled OEM-fitted steering damper on the latest ZX-10R into race mode, allowing it to meet the demands of the track. From the factory, the Öhlins electronically controlled steering damper is tuned to be adaptive to a broad range of street riding, from parking lots to legal speeds.

New: WSB sticker kit for Kawasaki ZX-10R

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

IF you have a ZX-10R and want it to look more like Tom Sykes' WSBK bike, then this sticker kit is a good start and saves you the £100,000 you'd have to spend to build the real thing. Here's what Kawasaki have to say about it:  As the premier road motorcycle based racing series, the World Superbike Championship is followed by racing enthusiasts across the globe – none more so than in Europe where the Kawasaki Racing Team, is based. UK born rider, Tom Sykes and Frenchman Loris Baz have entertained all year and both have a strong fan base eager to see how Kawasaki’s factory team and riders perform.
