Kawasaki Other description

Serviced and ready to go. It's time for me to say uncle at my age. The 14 is a great bike, super fast, handles great and is great a long distance bike.

 I'm the second owner.  There are some scratches on the left side of the bike where it looks like it fell over, they're on the side view mirror, in the black, just

at paint line and on the lower fairing, on the black and on the bottom of the painted side air vent. You really have to look hard to see them when your standing

next to the bike. The left saddle bag has a couple of scrapes on the raised ridges, like they were scraped up next to something (about 3/4" long).

The mileage is 37782 now and will no doubt will be going up a little. Services that have been done: 32,300 mi. new spark plugs, 33,000 mi. valves adjusted

and done right. All the valves were adjusted to just below max spec. .009 on the exhaust and .006 intake, not like some people do if minimum goes it fly's (but not for long)

and a new factory air filter was installed at that time too. 33,600 mi new front and rear tires were mounted. A note about the rear tire, I bought them off of e-bay and

when I received them the rear tire was damaged, something heavy was set on it and it bent the bead on one side and I should have sent it back but the tires on the bike

were bald and I wanted to ride. I bent the bead back out and mounted the tire but it didn't seal and every four or five days the tire will loose about five psi. and needs to

be aired up. Lesson learned ! 

The bike has a Delkevic cat back exhaust (stock one also goes with bike), two locking helmet hooks, National V force windshield (stock low windshield also), 2" handle bar risers

with GPS mount ball, Low seat, which comes from the ZX 14 and the gray and white stock seat, a new never used K&N air filter, owner's manual and service manual on disc.

Everything works as it should on the bike, so buy it, fly in and ride it home !!

Put a sting in your 2010 Z1000's tail

Fri, 19 Feb 2010

SCORPION has released an all-new new silencer for the 2010 Kawasaki Z1000.   The slip-on silencer requires no additional modifications: bolt on and go.Consistent power improvements throughout the rev range have been seen, with no adjustments to the fuelling, say Scorpion, with an average increase 3bhp.The new silencer has been acoustically developed to provide a greatly enhanced engine note.  This means the bike will be as loud as the original in terms of a dB reading, but the exhaust note offers a deeper growl. However, removable baffles allow the rider to dramatically alter the tone of the exhaust by simply removing one bolt per silencer.

Schoolboy Heroes

Fri, 04 Mar 2011

A wet and grey day in Calais in 1992 wouldn’t be the obvious situation for a life changing experience, but for a 11 year old lad on a boring booze cruise from Dover this is exactly what happened. Pockets bulging with funny money I headed to the Tabac for the obligatory bangers, dirty playing cards and some sweets.  Then it happened, I stood in front of the magazine rack and reached up, as if drawn by an external force.  At the time I wasn’t tall enough for Playboy or L’ Escort so settled for a copy of Moto Verte, the French motocross mag.  Life would never be the same again. Inside there was a double page spread, with a fresh faced Jeremy McGrath resting a leg over his #15 Honda CR125.  Sporting a pair of fluro MX trousers with a, now retro, bright white surname emblazoned jersey, and casting an eye over a seriously vast motocross park.  I stared at this Sinisalo advert all the way home, partly because all the articles were in foreign, but also because I was transfixed.  What and how do I become a motocross champion?

2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R – 170 hp At The Wheel!

Fri, 12 Nov 2010

A new, somewhat clandestine, video surfaced on YouTube just today revealing that Kawasaki’s new 2011 ZX-10R produces over 170 hp at the rear wheel in stock trim. Taking this at face value, that’s at least 17 hp more than the 2010 ZX-10R produced for us in our 2010 Literbike Shootout. This puts the new big Ninja within swinging distance of BMW’s S1000RR, that in the same shootout gave us just under 176 hp.
