REASON FOR SALE: my wife died suddenly 4 months ago and I need to get in money, if not I would not be selling this bike, this was my favorite and is the last one from my collection to go
1971 Kawasaki H1A I have owned this one since 2009. Bodywork painted to stock color by Paul Miller Suzuki, CT. Decals by Rick Brett Clear Coat by Long Island Russ Cylinders rebored and very mild port job by Paul Gast and Wiseco Pistons fitted. The ports have not been changed much, just cleaned up, I believe he referred to it as being Blue Printed. It has no air canister, instead one big open K&N filter and both the pilot and main jets increased to match. (I thought this was a good idea at the time but now I am not so sure and if I continued to own and ride this bike I would try fitting the stock canister and filter and jetting, just as an experiment to see which works best.) The front brake has been upgraded by having modern material fitted to the shoes, a custom low friction cable with no stop switch made by Barnett. The brake was adjusted professionally by Yukio Hamasaki (one of the best two stroke mechanics in the New York area). I think it works about as well as one of those brakes could do and likely better than when it was new. Ignition system replaced by a Lakeland system. New Reproduction wiring harness fitted. Ballistic battery Barnett Clutch Springs Exhaust System, Headlamp, Rear Axle & Fittings re-chromed This is not a show bike, it is a very nice stock looking bike, I rode it a lot and it proved to be a fast, fun and reliable rider. At some point in its' life, the frame broke and it was fitted with a 1970 frame, which is the same as a 1971. This means the registration document reads 1970 but all of the other parts are from a 1971. This never bothered me but I know it does bother some people so I thought I should mention it. It has a small oil leak from behind the front sprocket, I never worried about this as it is a very small leak, if ridden on a daily basis the leak would be unnoticeable, if the bike is left for the winter there will be a small pool of oil that will collect. All I did was keep an eye on the oil level and top it up about twice a year. As far as I am aware there are no problems with this bike, please ask me if you have any questions.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips
Fri, 01 Mar 2013CONTROL 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.
2010 Kawasaki Z1000 – First Ride
Fri, 11 Dec 2009UPDATE: Full Review now available on Motorcycle.com Almost forgotten among a group of new high-profile sportbikes is the new Kawasaki Z1000.
