The bike has been completely restored inside and out using most its original parts. If a part wasn??t powder coated, ceramic coated, vapor blasted and rezinced (nuts and bolts), then it was bought new. I don??t even know what to add as so much was done and lot of time put into it. In 1978 they only produced 1500 worldwide, 600 went to the US. So it??s super rare and a very low number at 000193. It runs and shifts like a brand new bike, the whole feel of it is amazing. Well contact me and I will ... more

Kawasaki Z1000 1979. 28651 miles on her One off paint job that is unbelievable, you will either love it or hate it. I think it's fantastic, but that's my opinion Bike runs and rides great. It's been on the road about a year after a strip down and rebuild. She had new tyres last year, and a service. I think the carb might need a bit of a tweak as she will pops Unfortunately I don't have the time to fully enjoy her anymore, so forced to sell. She needs somebody who will appreciate her, and give ... more

Here we have my 1978 CX500, sadly now for sale due to a change of circumstances. I bought it 4 years ago, and it has always been totally reliable, due in part possibly to the fact that a previous owner was a mechanic for a very well known motorcycle museum in the New Forest! I fully serviced it front to back, but it didn't need it. The oil looked like new. I have several bikes, so I have only put 2 or 3, 000 miles on it, the most recent being a tour of the Almeria region of Southern Spain last ... more
