Kawasaki Z1000 description
|
Like the heading says, this is a 2010 Kawasaki Z1000 that was purchase new December 2012. This bike has primarily sat in my garage as you can see from the odometer pic. It now has around 1550 miles, and no that is not a typo. It has a Yoshimura rear license plate kit. Other than that, the bike is stock and needs nothing. The exhaust looks gold, because of the reflection of the sun. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
***NO RESERVE*** This auction is for pick up only. I will consider shipping the bike, if all I have to do is drop it off at a carrier within the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Here are the specs from Kawasaki All-new Engine - Liquid-cooled, DOHC, 16-valve 1,043cc inline-four offers greater torque and a stronger top-end rush than previous Z1000 models - Bore and stroke of 77.0 x 56.0 mm were chosen to achieve the desired engine character —strong in the everyday rpm range most used by naked super bikes - 38mm downdraft throttle bodies allow intake air to travel to the engine in the shortest possible distance - Oval sub-throttles help keep the engine slim — a good thing since the throttle bodies are positioned between the rider’s knees - Soft rev limiter provides good overrev; power doesn’t drop off suddenly at high rpm - Crankshaft and transmission shafts are arranged in a straight line instead of a triangular layout, to maintain the design from the previous Z1000 — a design that offers the best look for a naked model - The crankshaft was lowered to allow for a longer stroke without adding engine height - A secondary balancer, driven off a gear on the sixth web of the crankshaft, eliminates excess vibration Cool Air System - The intake system routes cool air to the airbox from ducts above the radiator shrouds, minimizing performance loss due to heated intake air - Positioning the ducts close to the rider allows the intake sound to be enjoyed by the rider - A resonator inside the airbox reduces noise at low rpm, and enhances intake sound at high rpm Exhaust System - The exhaust system features a 4-into-2-pre-chamber-into-2 layout. Silencer end-caps maintain the quad-style image - Main and pre-catalyzers ensure emissions are clean - Thanks to the under-engine pre-chamber, silencer volume could be reduced. The silencers are also lighter. Overall exhaust system weight is about the same, but the new system offers much better mass centralization and contributes to a lower center of gravity Fuel Pump - Slim-type fuel pump features an integral fuel gauge - With revised fuel tank design and the slim-type fuel pump, dead volume inside the tank is minimized; fuel capacity is 4.1 gallons All-New Aluminum Backbone Frame - An aluminum backbone frame designed specifically for the Z1000, and similar in concept to the frame of the Ninja ZX-10R, allows a narrow construction that is easy to grip with the knees - Lightweight and highly rigid, the frame uses the engine as a stressed member, for a firm, planted feeling and enhanced stability - Frame is tuned to transmit the ideal level of engine feedback directly to the rider - The frame’s five-piece construction consists of steering stem, left and right main frames, and two cross pieces. The two main frame components have open C-shaped cross sections - As much as possible, welds were eliminated for simplicity and appearance. The frame beams and swingarm brackets are now single die-cast pieces - The new frame uses four engine mounts; three mounts are rigid, the upper rear crankcase mount is rubber - The rear sub-frame is a three-piece aluminum die-casting construction, light, strong and good for mass centralization - The sub-frame is an example of form and function combined, negating the need for side covers and allowing underseat narrowness for a shorter reach to the ground All-New Horizontal Rear Monoshock - New rear suspension positions the shock unit and linkage above the swingarm where it’s less exposed to exhaust heat and contributes to mass centralization - Visible from the outside, the horizontal monoshock contributes to the aggressive appearance of the new Z1000 - Linkage characteristics are the same as those of a standard UNI-TRAK rear suspension: Wheel movement versus shock stroke is the same ratio - The shock features rebound damping and spring preload adjustability Fully Adjustable Front Fork - The Z1000’s 41mm inverted fork is adjustable for compression damping, rebound damping and spring preload — and it’s protected from harm by a cool-looking shroud - Settings are designed for both sporty back road performance and excellent comfort on the street Handlebar, Grips and Footpegs - The tubular handlebar is rigid-mounted, contributing to sharp, direct handling - A wide, flat bend handlebar offers a design similar to those on off-road bikes, for excellent control - Tapered-type grips, like those used on supersport models, offer more direct feel - Ninja ZX-10R-style footpegs with knIMGing offer good grip, direct feel and control and no-nonsense looks - The passenger footpeg brackets incorporate convenient luggage hooks Brakes - The Z1000’s 300mm front petal brake discs are gripped by opposed four-piston radial-mount calipers. (Caliper piston size is 4x30 mm) - A radial-pump front brake master cylinder contributes to the superb control and feel offered by the new calipers - The rear brake is a single piston, pin-slide caliper gripping a 250mm petal disc. The caliper is mounted below the swingarm, and located by a torque rod Instrumentation - A distinctive tilting instrument panel with multifunction LCD display behind an orange lens covers all systems Specifications: - Engine: Four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, four valves per cylinder, inline-four - Displacement: 1043cc - Bore x Stroke: 77.0 x 56.0mm - Compression Ratio: 11.8:1 - Fuel Injection: DFI® with four 38mm Keihin throttle bodies, oval sub-throttles - Ignition: TCBI with digital advance - Transmission: Six-speed - Final Drive: X-ring chain - Rake / Trail: 24.5 degrees / 4.1 in. - Frame Type: Aluminum Backbone - Front Tire: 120/70 ZR17 - Rear Tire: 190/50 ZR17 - Wheelbase: 56.7 in. - Front Suspension / Wheel Travel: 41 mm inverted cartridge fork with stepless compression and rebound damping, adjustable spring preload / 4.7 in. - Rear Suspension / Wheel Travel: Horizontal monoshock with stepless rebound damping, adjustable spring preload / 5.4 in. - Front Brakes: Dual 300mm petal-type rotors with radial-mount four-piston calipers - Rear Brake: Single 250mm petal-type rotor with single-piston caliper - Overall Length: 82.5 in. - Overall Width: 31.7 in. - Overall Height: 42.1 in. - Seat Height: 32.1 in. - Fuel Capacity: 4.1 gal - Color Choices: Pearl Stardust White, Metallic Spark Black |

2010 Kawasaki Concours 14 Traction Control [video]
Thu, 29 Oct 2009With the new Concours, Kawi created its first traction control system. Unlike the ABS, the rider can disable or enable KTRC, and can do so on the fly. The new TC system isn’t level selectable, like, say, Ducati’s DTC, and it isn’t intended to allow a rider to go faster on their Connie.
2011-2012 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R Recalled for Crankcase Oil Leak
Fri, 10 Aug 2012Kawasaki is issuing a recall on its 2011 and 2012 Ninja ZX-10R due to a potential oil leak in the crankcase. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, engine oil may leak from the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R‘s crankcase from a machined area where the starter is mounted. Leaked oil may pool on top of the crank case and, under continued use, spill onto the rear tire, reducing traction and increasing the risk of a crash.
K-Tech release 25SSK for Big Piston Forks
Mon, 21 May 2012K-Tech have released their popular 25SSK front fork open cartridge system to fit all Showa Big Piston Forks. Here's what K-Tech have to say about them: These lightweight aluminium units are supplied to the same exacting specification as all other 25SSK fitments with 14mm piston rods and a 25mm cartridge tube, the 14mm piston rods displace a large volume of oil through the 25mm control pistons giving enhanced damping characteristics over the standard Big Piston Fork and allow a bigger volume of air for a more precise feel at the bottom of the fork travel. The cartridge kits have compression and rebound adjustment in both legs and are supplied with 1.5mm Flow Control Valves for a more accurate adjustment, all necessary hardware is supplied to convert the Big Piston Forks to take the cartridges but it is necessary to order the springs you require as these are not included, customer price for the 25SSK cartridges is £725.00 + VAT and are available for the following models:- Honda CBR1000RR 2012 Kawasaki ZX6-R 2009-2012 Kawasaki ZX10-R 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR600 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR1000 2009-2012 Contact K-Tech on: +44(0)1283 559007.
