Kawasaki Other description

I'm the 3rd owner for the past 20 years.
99% stock and original. Always garaged in San Jose California. 
Original exhaust. Never had a header on it.
33,922  miles. Runs, starts & shifts great. 
New Yuasa battery. Full carb service including synch, new float valves & seats, o-rings & gaskets.
Fresh and amazing paint job by Shiro's in Campbell Ca.
Correct decal set from Kawasaki. Color is spot on. Minor oops ( see pic ) on the tank which the seat covers up - can't even notice. Gas guage doesn't work consistently so I just use the trip meter.
New seat cover.
Includes 2 original keys with original dealer strap key chain. Complete tool kit & pouch. 
Owner's book ( with the fold out wiring diagram still fixed to the back cover ) with original pouch.
Will need tires. I purchased these years ago and went slightly oversized as the stock ones are rather skinny by today's standards but the new owner can choose now. I cleaned it up a little but wanted to present it as is. With a proper detailing it will look even better.
I'm listing locally so I reserve the right to end this sale early. This is a strong original Z1R and I have never had any mechanical issues whatsoever. Took it to Alice's Restaurant in La Honda alot! 
I'm not a collector and I hate to part with this bike but it's time to move on.
I will not ship for you but will assist as much as possible. Call 4oh89six66three59 with any questions.
Thanks for your interest!!

2011 Isle of Man TT Recap

Fri, 10 Jun 2011

The Isle of Man TT usually provides a lot of drama, and this year’s event was no different. John McGuinness, second on the all-time TT wins list, added two more wins to his resume to win the Joey Dunlop Trophy while MotoCzysz once again fell just short of taking the bounty for being the first electric motorcycle team to record a 100 mph lap on the Mountain Course. The 2011 Isle of Man TT also had its share of tragedy with three racing fatalities.

EICMA 2013: 2014 Kawasaki Z1000 First Impressions Video

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

“It looks kind of angry!” That pretty much sums up what Editor-in-Chief Kevin Duke thinks of Kawasaki‘s newly redesigned Z1000 and its “sugomi” design philosophy. And for those of you who feel turned off by today’s machines and their dependance on the latest electronics, Kawasaki says the Z1000 does not have traction control because they want to keep it raw and untamed.

Ninja H2 Video XVI – High Precision Machinery + Video

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Yes, folks, Kawasaki has released yet another teaser video for the Ninja H2. This time, it’s number 16, titled, “Beauty in High Precision.” In it, we see the impeller for the supercharger being created from a solid piece of billet aluminum. Admittedly, this inundation of H2 videos is getting to be a bit much, even for us, but if you’re a fan of machine porn, then Kawasaki’s latest video will surely please.
