Up for sale is my 1978 KZ1000. I have owned the bike since 2009 and have performed all of the work myself and can answer any questions. I have some of the receipts but not all and I also have some pictures of the engine when I was building it. The bike has been together for around 6-7 years in its current form, so it has been tested and done correctly. The valvetrain has all been adjusted (measured and replaced the valve spring shims to obtain correct valve clearance), carbs have been rebuilt, synced, and re-jetted and the ignition system upgraded to solid state Dyna S components. It sounds like a sewing machine when you’re cruising. I had the bike repainted a couple years ago. It has a base/clear coat with the factory decals under the clear and sanded/buffed to look all one level. The paint is not perfect but it’s very close. You can clearly see what is in the reflections in the pictures and it looks as good or better in person. The only thing that the bike could use is a set of fork seals up front, very slight seepage. The chrome looks presentable but does show some age. The tires are in ok shape. Through my ownership, almost all of the wear parts have been replaced and or upgraded. Below is a list of the parts I can remember I have put on, I am sure I am forgetting a few. Feel free to contact me about the motorcycle, no solicitors or help needed in trying to sell the bike. If you have zero feedback, please contact me before bidding or your bid will be removed.

Will the road-going RCV look like this?
Thu, 25 Oct 2012Honda announced in a dry-as-you-like press release that a new bike was coming. Not another motorcycle-cum-medical aid like the DN-01 or Integra, this is going to be a proper bike. A bike in a similar vein to previous bikes in the RC series, the RC30, RC45 and RC51, aimed squarely at winning races. So what's it going to look like?
K-Tech release 25SSK for Big Piston Forks
Mon, 21 May 2012K-Tech have released their popular 25SSK front fork open cartridge system to fit all Showa Big Piston Forks. Here's what K-Tech have to say about them: These lightweight aluminium units are supplied to the same exacting specification as all other 25SSK fitments with 14mm piston rods and a 25mm cartridge tube, the 14mm piston rods displace a large volume of oil through the 25mm control pistons giving enhanced damping characteristics over the standard Big Piston Fork and allow a bigger volume of air for a more precise feel at the bottom of the fork travel. The cartridge kits have compression and rebound adjustment in both legs and are supplied with 1.5mm Flow Control Valves for a more accurate adjustment, all necessary hardware is supplied to convert the Big Piston Forks to take the cartridges but it is necessary to order the springs you require as these are not included, customer price for the 25SSK cartridges is £725.00 + VAT and are available for the following models:- Honda CBR1000RR 2012 Kawasaki ZX6-R 2009-2012 Kawasaki ZX10-R 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR600 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR1000 2009-2012 Contact K-Tech on: +44(0)1283 559007.
Tested: Maxxis Supermaxx Diamond
Fri, 23 Sep 2011Well Maxxis were bang on with their mileage claims, 6500 miles on the rear and it looks as though there is another 1000. Not bad at all for a set of tyres that cost less than £200. Having lived with the Supermaxx’s Diamonds over the past few months the best thing about these tyres is the mileage range they offer vs cost.
