1979 Kawasaki KZ1300 cafe racer custom project For Sale

I have just finished the build, took 18 months. Now needs to go as I need the cash. I really did this as an exercise in building, not really to ride as I am not a racer.

This is a compete one-off, nothing like it anywhere. I have not seen a custom cafe racer KZ1300 six cylinder anywhere on the net.

Started with a basket case from USA. Completely rebuilt engine with new drive- and cam chains, bearings, valves, head, pistons and piston rings. Rebuilt carbs (by Oz!), Motogadget Blue electronic fusebox with phone-bluetooth connectivity, keyless start and alarm, Axel Joost controls, 1950-ies Citroen headlight, Kellerman brake/ indicator lights, aluminium handlebars and rear sets, Front end off a 2006 Benelli Tre K with Marzocchi 58mm forks, five spoke wheel, new fork oil and seals, new dual Brembo Gold Line calipers, discs and pads and carbon brake lines, bespoke one-off stainless exhaust system by Predator, pod air filters, Kawasaki Zephyr 1100 tank, Acewell electronic speedo, new fatter tyres (Avon and Bridgestone), Triumph bobber seat with aluminium pan, Ultrabatt Lithium Ion battery, genuine Shindengen regulator, all new wiring, coils, plugs and leads, new Hagon gas rear shocks, various other custom bits.

Runs like a train, sounds like an earthquake! Barely run in, 150 miles done to date. (needs 1000 mile careful running and then an oil change). 120 BHP on tap and quite a bit lighter than the standard Z1300's. Has not been shown anywhere yet, so you can show off this unique bike when the shows are back on. Bike is finished, but you can do more to it and make it your own.

This is essentially a completely new bike.

If applicable: London Congestion zone and ULEZ exempt!!

No road tax and no MOT required.

Lots more pics if need be and you can see/ hear a video If you search Youtube for : 'Kawasaki KZ1300 Cafe Racer' and there will be a video of it running there.

Serious enquiries only please...

Picture of 2001 Kawasaki W650 / BSA RGS Replica - For Sale

Kawasaki introduced the W650 in 1999, as a homage to their W1, 2 and 3 models produced between 1967 and 1975. The retro styling was an instant winner but due to the fact that the engine also had retro engineering in it, similar in fact to early single cylinder Ducati’s, the motor had a really nice classic feel but coupled ...
