Kawasaki kz1000 LTD description

1978 Kawasaki 1000 LTD.  Previous owner rebuilt the bike with the major components being rebuilt by Redline Cycle in Illinois.  Check their website for specifics and quality. Engine is 1075 cc, welded crank, undercut 2nd gear with Andrews 2X degreed cams, Dyna coil & ignition with 29mm smoothbores.

Previous owner put 4,000 miles on since the rebuild, I put on about 800 miles and then parked the bike almost 3 years ago.  The tires are good, no cracks, but since they are now ten years old I purchased new ones that will go with the bike.

Engine serial # KZT00AE044792.  I looked it up and although its listed as a 1978, it shows up under the police model sequence. 

Seat bar is the KZ type cause I liked it better.  During a long trip I'd put the sissy bar on it. 

Everything was redone including powder coating the frame, too much to list. Pictures tell the story.

Bike is sold as is, buyer responsible for shipping/pick up.

Redline rebuilt the carbs early Spring (thank you ethanol gas),  Started it, shut it off, drained all the gas, put in 1 gallon ethanol free Supreme in the tank, changed oil, plugs, but left the gas off.

Scorpion silencer for Z800e

Sun, 22 Sep 2013

PERFORMANCE exhaust manufacturer Scorpion has launched a silencer for Kawasaki's Z800e which it says adds 4.9bhp while shaving 5.4kg off weight. The Z800e is Kawasaki's A2-friendly version of the Z800, with claimed power reduced from 111 to 94bhp. A2 licence holders limited to 47bhp can ride a machine which has been restricted but it must not have made more that 94bhp to begin with, making the Z800e eligible.
