1979 Kawasaki KZ 1300

1979 Kawasaki KZ 1300

Looking for something completely different? Here's a rare and vintage classic monster.

The Kawasaki KZ1300 originally planned as a racing motorcycle, but evolved into a touring motorcycle shortly after its release. Despite that, the KZ1300 became known for its screaming, yet reliable water-cooled six-cylinder engine. When it was released, its output in excess of 120HP led to new laws in Europe limiting horsepower.

Currently sporting flat/sport bars, and a few noteworthy and recommended upgrades including an $800 Dyna III ignition/coil kit and the updated cam chain tensioner. It has a brand new battery, a 6:1 DG exhaust and and sounds like a Ferrari when you rev it. Everything works, has only original 19K miles on this classic beast. Timing was just set by a professional.

One of only three, 6-cylinder models ever produced, (Benelli and Honda CBX) the KZ13 was the fastest and most powerful, and one of the models whose release led to the term "superbike" due to its horsepower and size. Six cylinders, water cooling, and shaft drive make it incredibly fast despite it's weight (700+lbs), definitely not for the beginner rider or faint of heart.


A beast of a bike if there ever was one!

1985 Yamaha RZ350 - Kenny Roberts Replica



A rare and beautiful original little rocket. The last of the street legal 2-strokes to be imported to the USA.

Under 11K miles. Completely stock, right down to the factory catalytic converter equipped expansion chambers.  Since so many of these were racetrack bound, it's pretty hard to find one stock.

New Brigstone Battleaxe tires, new battery, otherwise pretty much as it came off the showroom floor.

1974 Kawasaki Z1 900

Un-restored and original 1974 Kawasaki. A classic in-line four, 903cc, 81hp, 132mph projectile with a little over 16K original miles. Matching numbers.

Original paint, still has all the factory stickers, original tool kit and owner’s manual under the seat.
Is completely stock: exhaust is rusted few in a few places on the inside rear, all original rear grab bar, blinkers, mirrors and handlebars, etc. Spent the last few weeks cleaning it up for sale.

Just got it out of storage and went through the carbs and put a new battery in it. Fires right up with kick starter or button. It starts, revs, runs, shifts and idles perfectly. Gauges and lights all work fine.
Electric and kick start. Lights, blinkers and gauges all work. New oil and filter. Normal dings, nicks and some minor pitting.

This is NOT a restoration and is by no means perfect, simply a vintage, box stock Z1, cleaned up and ready for you to ride or restore. Was last titled and tagged in March 1993
