Kawasaki Other description

197 Kawasaki H1 500 in beautiful condition with only 12, 60mis. This Kawasaki has all original paint and matching engine and frame numbers. The frame is H1F 040 and the engine is KAE 74072. The paint is very nice with a couple small chips in the tank and some scratches and rub marks in the tail section from an ill fitting rack that was on when I got it. The tank is clean inside with no rust and has never been coated. The chrome is nice and shiny and the exhaust is original with the correct markings, and is solid with no holes. The tires are in attractive shape with plenty of tread and no cracking. The carbs have been ultrasonically cleaned and the bike fires up on the 1st or 2nd kick. It runs well and shifts nicely through all the gears with no issues. Everything works including the headlamps, turn signals, indicator lamps, odometer, speedometer and brakes. I have the toolkit and a clean title. Original well preserved bikes like this 1 are getting hard to find, and will only rise in value.

We all like to save a shilling if we can, especially these days, but sometimes, doing a job yourself, cutting corners and generally grubbing round being tight fisted actually ends up costing you more money than biting the bullet and putting your hand a bit deeper into your pocket to get a proper job done. The problem is, I come from a long line of, erm, frugal Yorkshire b####rds going back generations, and I seem to be hardwired as a bit of a skinflint. My dad, although never actually short of money, that I could remember, didn’t like spending it.

2011 Isle of Man TT Recap

Fri, 10 Jun 2011

The Isle of Man TT usually provides a lot of drama, and this year’s event was no different. John McGuinness, second on the all-time TT wins list, added two more wins to his resume to win the Joey Dunlop Trophy while MotoCzysz once again fell just short of taking the bounty for being the first electric motorcycle team to record a 100 mph lap on the Mountain Course. The 2011 Isle of Man TT also had its share of tragedy with three racing fatalities.

New 1972 Kawasaki Z1 only £720

Fri, 29 Jun 2012

Looking at the pictures of Japanese firm Yamato's new Kawasaki Z1 you'd be hard pushed to tell it's not the real thing. But in fact it's a scale model only just over a foot long, made with incredible attention to detail with several years of development to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original 900cc Z1 of 1972. Using 3D scanning of real parts, the bike was scaled down to create this model, which has now gone on sale in Japan at an eye-watering £720 apiece.
