This is a 1981 Kawasaki KZ1000 with under 2,000 miles on an engine refresh. Machine work was done by Kawasaki Specialists, Cavanaugh Racing in 2011. The following items have been replaced along with the engine refresh:- New Tires- Chain and Sprockets Upgraded- New Clutch- New Pod Air Filters- New Brakes The bike has been sitting for a little over a year, and needs a little bit of TLC to be perfect. I rode the bike for approximately 10 miles today with no issues other than the engine is due for it's first valve adjustment, and the rear brake pedal presses down and slows the bike, but doesn't come back up. Also, the trip meter works accurately, but the speedometer doesn't move. The seat is in like new condition, and has no tears or split seams. The gas tank is very clean inside. The bike shifts through all the gears, and aside from being slightly cold blooded, it runs well and pulls hard when going through the gears. As mentioned above, the engine is due for the first valve adjustment and you can hear valve noise coming from the engine. The mufflers do have some acid staining on them, but they may shine up nice. All of the brake lights and turn signals work as well. I had to charge the battery on 50 amp start, so the condition of the battery at this time is unknown. Shipping is the Buyer's responsibility, although I will assist any way I can. Acceptable forms of payment are Cashier's Check, Money Order, Cash in person and Bank Wire Transfer. All funds must clear before motorcycle is released. If you have any questions please ask before purchasing.

1978 Kawasaki Ltd , Own a piece of 1970's History, this motorcycle has several unique features from the ZR1 front end, Blake Industries Turbo Package, Karata glide lock up clutch, APE studs on block and a welded crank. You will not find another motorcycle that has these features from the late 1970's and in the condition that this motorcycle is in. This is the only Z I have seen with this Bill Blake Industries Turbo package most all of them have a ATP turbo package. With the right rider this is a high eight second bike. This is better than a Z1R Turbo as it is done right and will go straight with no vibration. 1978 Kawasaki KZ1000 LTD VIN KZT00B514083 Engine: 1428cc, Wiseco 7.8.1 Turbo Pistons new less than 100 miles ago Blake Industries Turbo Kit from Muskogee OK Mikuni HSR 42mm Carb, New Modified Oil Pan and Oil Pump with Deep Sump Welded Crank APE Heavy Duty Cylinder and Main Bearing Studs Rare Karata Glide Lockup Clutch New Royal Purple oil and new oil filter Engine covers secured with stainless steel socket head Allen bolts New copper base and head gasket Oil Cooler Body and Frame: Complete 1978 Z1R front end, controls, gauges, fairing well like I said a whole front end. This front end is rare. 2 over stock Swing Arm with 2 shock mount positions and 3 axel positions 18 Aluminum Rims AVON tires front and rear both brand new 630 Chain and front sprocket replaced less than 100 miles ago, rear sprocket was in good shape New seat High Flow Petcock Chrome Engine Mounts Bodywork is 2013 Lincoln Ruby Red just painted three weeks ago Electrics: Dynatek Coils with Blue Suppression Plug Wires Regulator, Alternator and Igniter all tested good Wires and connectors have all been checked and are in good condition, no brittle wiring Misc Info: I bought this bike from a gentleman in Tigard Oregon, he inherited it from his grandfather who had passed on. The bike was last registered in the state of Oklahoma 10/18/1981. At that time the bike had 16836 miles on the registration which I have. Mileage reads 16880 so since last registered had 44 miles usage maybe. I also have an article from Motorcyclist in 1978 that has the Blake Industries Turbo package featured. This engine was sealed as professional drag racers sealed it. The Wastegate is set at 5 pounds of boost. This allows the bike to run on readily available premium gasoline The cams are stock The HSR 42 carb was added right after I purchased the bike, and allows the bike to be cruised around town, or pushed hard Full payment is expected within 7 business days. $500 deposit required $6,800.00
