Kawasaki Other description

This is a great bike. Love it but I'm moving and unfortunately must sell. 6600 miles but still being ridden. Engine is stock but bike has numerous functional enhancements:

- Rox riser and Renthal "Ultra Low" bar. Net effect is bar is about the same height as stock but a little further forward.
- Heated grips (Oxford Heaterz Sports model).
- Lowered suspension (Speedy/Motowerk lowering kit, reversible).
- 43T rear sprocket (stock is 46) for more relaxed cruising.
- SW Motech rear rack (the rack goes with the bike but I am keeping the Givi case mount...that's the waffle grid plastic thing bolted to the rack). 
- Speedy/Motowerk sidestand foot lets you park it safely on soft ground.
- 12V power outlet.
- Running light function added to front turn signals (Magic Blinkers).
- Seat Concepts seat kit (vastly more comfortable than stock).
- Electrical Connections Power Plate for accessory power.
- Auxiliary LED brake light and "Back Off" flashing brake light module.
- Lower footpegs so your knees are not bent so much (Buell XB).
- Mike's Sport windshield.
- Swingarm spools.

Bike fell over once and there is some scratching on right side of tank and radiator cover (most visible on radiator cover).

Comfortable, fast, smooth, and capable. Motorcyclist Magazine "Motorcycle of the Year".

Price is well below book value. Most stock parts will be included in the sale. 


Located in Lafayette Park, right by Greektown. Sometimes I commute on it to Warren so you could possibly see it there too.

Bike is also for sale locally.

Small-Displacement Class Considered for 2015 AMA Pro Racing Season

Wed, 04 Dec 2013

More and more manufacturers are entering the small-displacement sportbike market and AMA Pro Racing has taken notice, opening the possibility of adding a new racing class representing the growing segment. With plans to consolidate the Daytona Sportbike and Supersport classes and the Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson series signed through 2015, a spot will open up on race weekends for another racing class to support the premier Superbike Championship. The logical choice is to introduce a new small-displacement class.

Isle of Man TT 2012: Lightweight TT Results

Mon, 11 Jun 2012

Ryan Farquhar earned his third ever Isle of Man TT win in the return of the Lightweight TT class. Absent since the 2009 Isle of Man TT with 250cc machines, the 2012 iteration of the Lightweight class features 650cc twins such as the Kawasaki Ninja 650 (or ER-6F, as it’s known on that side of the Pond) which most competitors rode. The race was moved back to Saturday, June 9, after rain forced organizers to cancel the initially-scheduled Friday race.

Kawasaki Z1R.

Thu, 09 Dec 2010

These two beautiful Z1R Kawasakis appeared at the annual Mooneyes Yokohama Custom show last weekend. With one sporting a street/strip look (spot the belly-scraping ride height and rigid rear struts) and the other undergoing a sort of modernisation, they both reminded me just how handsome and unique the original slab-sided Z1R was.  Judging by some of the other wild and weird exhibits I made a mental note to myself: must make sure I'm in Japan this time next year.
