1975 Kawasaki Z1 B

 

1975 Kawasaki Z1-B

 

We are delighted to announce that we have recently taken delivery of a superb Kawasaki Z1-B.

 

We found the bike in the US where it had been recently recommisssioned after spending some ten years or so in a private museum.  The paint is the stock Candy Red which is correct for this model, and the only departure from stock that we have identified is the chroming of a number of additional parts on the engine and elsewhere. 

We have carried out the following work since acquiring the bike:

 

• Strip and rebuild all four carburettors

• Remove engine

• Overhaul top end

• Fit new base and head gaskets

• Lap valves and re-shim, including new shims

• Fit new cam chain

• Re-fit engine

• Fit new spark plugs

• Fit new spark plug caps

• Fit new wiring loom and switch gear

•  

The wheels rims, swinging arm and switch gear have the correct original dates on them for a 1974/75 bike, whilst the exhausts and silencers have been replaced with high quality new parts.  The frame and engine numbers have been re-stamped in the US.  These numbers match and the frame number is shown on the US title.  We understand from a Z1 expert that this practice is common in some US states.

 

The bike has an MOT and UK registration with age-related plate, and runs and rides exactly as it should. This really is an excellent opportunity to acquire a high quality Z1-B.
