Kawasaki Other description

Up for auction is my 1973 Z1 900 Kawasaki. I bought the bike from the original owner in Powell, WY a few years ago. In 1976 this motorcycle was involved in an accident which unfortunately required a new frame, gauges, three turn signals three exhaust pipes and a new front rim. The photo's show the newer OEM part numbers of the replaced parts. The frame still has the original factory part number Kawasaki sticker on it. (see photo's) Since I took possession I have replaced the original seat, gas tank, side panels, and rear fender. I also installed brand new turn signals as well as the posts. The bike does need new tires. I have the a new front for it. I also do have an airbox cover for the air cleaner cavity. All the electrics work well. The bike shifts nice but it does run a little rough. Carburetors. I do have a new carburetor seal kit which will go with the bike as well. The bike does present itself really well. Overall it's in very nice condition. The one exhaust header does have two dimple dents in it. (see photo) The left side upper pipe also has a small dent just forward of the mounting bolt. (see photo). The wiring harness is original so there are two small tears in the wiring sheath which runs to the handlebar controls. (see photos) I do not have the original mirrors.

The original owner told me that when he had the accident the bike only had about three thousand miles on it. Post accident miles are 5131.

The frame does not have any VIN numbers stamped on the steering head. However as you can see from the title, (see photo) the VIN number is correct for the engine number. Also my local sheriff's department did inform me that I could have the frame stamped. I just chose not to.

The bike has the original 2 keys and factory key strap, tool kit and owners manual.

K-Tech release 25SSK for Big Piston Forks

Mon, 21 May 2012

K-Tech have released their popular 25SSK front fork open cartridge system to fit all Showa Big Piston Forks. Here's what K-Tech have to say about them: These lightweight aluminium units are supplied to the same exacting specification as all other 25SSK fitments with 14mm piston rods and a 25mm cartridge tube, the 14mm piston rods displace a large volume of oil through the 25mm control pistons giving enhanced damping characteristics over the standard Big Piston Fork and allow a bigger volume of air for a more precise feel at the bottom of the fork travel. The cartridge kits have compression and rebound adjustment in both legs and are supplied with 1.5mm Flow Control Valves for a more accurate adjustment, all necessary hardware is supplied to convert the Big Piston Forks to take the cartridges but it is necessary to order the springs you require as these are not included, customer price for the 25SSK cartridges is £725.00 + VAT and are available for the following models:- Honda CBR1000RR 2012 Kawasaki ZX6-R 2009-2012 Kawasaki ZX10-R 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR600 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR1000 2009-2012 Contact K-Tech on: +44(0)1283 559007.
