Kawasaki Other description

1978 Kawasaki KZ200 In great running condition, ready to be a daily commuter. 

Would also make the perfect starting point for a winter cafe project. The bike has been tuned up and safety checked at Berkshire Cycles. Tires have lots of tread but should probably be changed. 

If you're just getting into motorcycles and want a smaller bike that you can rely on, this is perfect. The single cylinder 200cc engine has enough pep for you to ride around the valley and through the hilltowns. Just kick start it (or use the electric start) and you're off. If you're looking for a vintage Japanese bike, this is it -- all the work to get it road worthy has been done. 

Local delivery is available. You can hear it running here:

Note: This comes only with a bill of sale -- NO TITLE. If you want to register it, you'll need to go through the Vermont route, which plenty of people do. Google it for more info. 

The odometer was replaced at some point and the actual mileage is around 20K. It's a great bike and got used because it's reliable. 

New: 

Tune up 
Air Filter 
Battery 
Front Brake Cable 
Dash bulbs 
Headlight assembly and H4 bulb 
Spark Plug and Cap Fuel lines and filters 
Oil change 
Carb cleaning with new float

2014 World Supersport – Phillip Island Results

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

The 2014 World Supersport season opened in dramatic fashion after a red-flagged restart turned the 18-lap race into a five-lap sprint, with MV Agusta making a triumphant return to the top of the podium for the first time since 1976. The Supersport event began with a hard-fought battle between three-time champion Kenan Sofuoglu, Kev Coghlan and Michael van der Mark. Sofuoglu and his Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R held a slim lead over Coghlan’s Yamaha R6 and van der Mark’s Honda CBR600RR when the race was halted after CIA Insurance Honda rider Jack Kennedy suffered an engine problem and leaked oil onto the track.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.
