Kawasaki Other description

For sale is a 1982 Kawasaki GPZ750. 33000 miles/$1700 OBO. This bike runs good and is my daily commuter (via Interstate) for my 20 mile trip to work and back. Alas, I have 3 other bikes that I have been neglecting so its time to make room in my garage. The Good: -The bike is a difficult find in this condition mechanically (the 1982 GPZs are collector bikes) -The bike has never given me a problem when starting and it doesnt smoke -Carbs have been cleaned twice, oil has been changed recently, both front brakes have new pads, and both tires have less than 500 miles on them -No identifiable issues with brakes, clutch, transmission, tires, electronics, or exhaust. -Before I decided to sell the bike (last month), I took it in to Apex Sports to see what needed to be done to make it an even better ride. Their only suggestion was a carb sync. -Accelerates nicely and, as mentioned above, hits 75 on the freeway for my ride to work (6000 rpm = 75mph, redline is 10000) -Clean, clear title -Will include a manual, rear bearings, replacement rear brake pads and original turn signal and a replacement for a broken one. The Not So Good: -A sensor lights up randomly. I recently talked to another rider on the exact same make and model bike. He had the same issue on his bike and hes had it since 1982. -There are several cosmetic flaws on the tank and rear panel. They are slight for a bike that is 30 years old. -The windshield had some stains that were pretty bad so I sprayed the outside with truck bed linermaking the windscreen opaque. It looks pretty good if I say so myself but if you wanted to restore the bike, you would have to order a new one (Ive looked online and found a place that sells them for around $120) -Both rear turn signals have broken off (due to metal fatigue) but the right has been JB welded (held strong for over a year), and the left was professionally welded on last year.

ZX-10R. Worth the weight?

Thu, 18 Nov 2010

The whisper on pit lane is that 2011 will be a good year for the green K. Our moles within the racing circles tell us that apart from more power and less weight (always handy), the new ZX-10R's main advantage is not these two factors but rather its improved weight distribution, weight transference qualities and grip levels. Studying Tom Syke's lap time data from Kawasaki's public test sessions it seems it's much easier for him to maintain consistent fast lap times back-to-back over the whole range of tyre degradation and fuel load changes.

ZX-10R inspired by JPS Lotus?

Tue, 10 Jul 2012

Spotted on Kawasaki's Facebook page, this 'Limited Edition' ZX-10R has been created by none other than double-F1 World Champ Emerson Fittipaldi, who is - amongst other things - a Kawasaki dealer in Brazil and who also happened to win his first World Championship in 1972 in a JPS Lotus that had a very similar colour scheme. Fittipaldi started his motorsport career on a motorcycle, aged just 14, before heading to hydrofoils (surely no-one else at world level has ever raced these?!) and then the more traditional route of karting. Question is: what do you think to the paintjob?
