This is too funny. I just sold my '99 996 and this project 70's kawi (kwacka I think the brits or aussies say) rolls though the shop. Well actually it gets pushed but that qualifies as "rolls", right?

A '75 Kawasaki Z1B 900. Someone is telling me something methinks

Those bikes were the hottet thing going for their day. Except the two cycle 500's were a screamer.

I had a chance to ride the Kawasaki 500 triple in college...it was very fast at the time.

My friend in the military owned a Kawasaki triple that could keep up with my GS1150E until it started to breathe. Another Porsche on the horizon? Why not. Once its time to change the windshield wipers you gotta look for the next ride.

Had a 77" KZ1000 from 77-98. It was the fastest bike made in 77. All I ever had to do was change the oil and put in gas. My brother had a 750 triple. It was incredibly fast but was a handful to ride, no weight, very peaky power band. The KZ1000 was much better to ride.

I still own a 1978 KZ1000 Z1R, owned a TC back in the day, still regret getting rid of that one.

Here is my modern day Kawasaki Mean Streak, this is my daily driver. I had 2 different Harley's pver the past 10 years. I thought I was buying this for financial reasons and was settling. I ended up with a way superior motorcycle, love the bike.

I'm restoring a TC right now, should be pretty sweet when done. This Z1-R I bought from the original owner a couple years ago. I washed it and now it lives in Detroit

awe, glad to meet you.. I have spent some time around your car looking it over and recall the motor swap story(s) She looks great, sounds amazing and I wish you all the miles in the world!!!

Yes, when it comes to water pumpers in the N.W. they are the guys who have the most experience and knowledge - they are also excellent in air-cooled.. great team all around !!

Put a Kerker header on it and let it sing nice bike.
