Kawasaki KZ1000A description

The 1977 Kawasaki K1000 was the powerhouse of it's time. It was the "King of Superbikes!" With factory quarter mile times in the low 12 second range, the KZ's enjoyed many years of straight line domination on the street. Old Kaws Never Die! Long-time owners just get too old to ride them.

This bike runs smooth and fast. This is a turn-key bike. Touch the start button or kick start one time and this bike comes to life. The engine idles properly and responds to the throttle as it should. There are no oil leaks and no abnormal sounds. The transmission shifts properly and clutch is smooth and strong. This bike needs absolutely nothing. Everything works on this bike, has brand new tires, battery and it is ready to ride.

Look closely at the pictures and notice the custom black paint, LTD tank, side covers, and handlebars. A new LTD gel-seat for long distant comfort plus EZ on/off windshield. The front forks are extended 6". This KZ has been well maintained, kept inside out of the weather. Could make a great show bike or fun rider! Hate to sell my baby! :-(

The Hagerty retail value for this bike in AVERAGE condition is currently $5,500; Condition #1 is $8,500. You do the research!

Don't hesitate to ask questions if you need any additional information. If you are not willing to buy, PLEASE do not place the bid!
