Kawasaki Other description

1981 Kawasaki KZ440

Condition: Runs and drives good with freshly painted frame and tank (no rust inside). 

1. Frame and tank painted black with many other parts powder coated black.
2. Brand new pair of Mikuni VM 32 Carbs, pods and throttle cable $400 only 350 miles on them.
3. New shorty levers and master cylinder
4. New rear shocks 
5. New handmade retro headlight 
6. New speedo and mount 
7. New rear blinkers 
8. Newish tires pry about 500 miles on them.
9. Rizoma bars 
10. New Mac Exhaust

Overall - the bike is in good condition and I have added some upgrades. I added brand new Mikuni  slide carbs and I have driven the bike about 500 miles since I  purchased it with zero issues. 

This would be a good base for a cafe or brat build as it is mechanically sound. 

What is needed: It will need larger main jets as it runs a little rich and it will also need the seat to be upholstered. 

I also have tons of original parts (fenders, shocks, tach, speedo, gaskets and new old stock parts) that will be included in the sale. 

NOTE: Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up.

Michelin Unveils New Tire for Dual Sport Motorcycles

More than half of the new BMW R 1200 GSs that roll off the assembly line in 2013 will be fitted with Michelin’s new big trail tire, the Anakee III. BMW and Michelin worked together to co-develop the dual-sport tire, which is designed to deliver all the safety and off road capability big trail motorcycle users demand. The Anakee III will also be available as a replacement option for other leading dual sport bikes, like the Suzuki V-Strom, Kawasaki KLR, Triumph Tiger and Yamaha Super Tenere.

WSBK 2013: Monza Race Report

Mon, 13 May 2013

Eugene Laverty and Marco Melandri split a pair of victories at Monza but the most biggest news from the World Superbike weekend was a strange series of appeals after Race Two that saw Tom Sykes finish third, relegated to fourth and then reinstated on the final step of the podium. The unusual mix-up occurred after Sykes, sitting in third place, ran off track and into the run off area on Turn 5 on his final lap. The Kawasaki rider returned to the track again in third place where he finished ahead of Aprilia‘s Sylvain Guintoli.
