Kawasaki Other description

1981 Kawasaki KZ440

Condition: Runs and drives good with freshly painted frame and tank (no rust inside). 

1. Frame and tank painted black with many other parts powder coated black.
2. Brand new pair of Mikuni VM 32 Carbs, pods and throttle cable $400 only 350 miles on them.
3. New shorty levers and master cylinder
4. New rear shocks 
5. New handmade retro headlight 
6. New speedo and mount 
7. New rear blinkers 
8. Newish tires pry about 500 miles on them.
9. Rizoma bars 
10. New Mac Exhaust

Overall - the bike is in good condition and I have added some upgrades. I added brand new Mikuni  slide carbs and I have driven the bike about 500 miles since I  purchased it with zero issues. 

This would be a good base for a cafe or brat build as it is mechanically sound. 

What is needed: It will need larger main jets as it runs a little rich and it will also need the seat to be upholstered. 

I also have tons of original parts (fenders, shocks, tach, speedo, gaskets and new old stock parts) that will be included in the sale. 

NOTE: Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up.

2014 WSBK – Assen Results

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Heavy rains and a fortuitous red flag were the difference in the World Superbike Championship‘s visit to The Cathedral of motorcycle racing, the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. Aprilia‘s Sylvain Guintoli captured his second win of the season in Race 1, which was halted early by a red flag with five laps to go just as it looked like reigning WSBK champion Tom Sykes was gearing up for a final challenge. The second race was also shortened, not by a red flag but because of a rain, turning the 21-lap race into a 10-lap sprint.

Valentino Rossi has finished on the podium eleven times in his twelve visits to Phillip Island across all three GP classes. The only race at Phillip Island that he did not finish in the top three was on his first visit riding a 125cc machine in 1997 when he finished sixth. In 1998 and 1999 he won the 250cc races and since then has had nine podiums in the premier-class including five victories, the last of which was in 2005.
