Kawasaki Other description

Here we have a 1999 Kawasaki Drifter 1500, looks like #106 off the assembly line in 1999. Very low number if you are a collector. This bike has all the looks of an Indian Chief of yester year. 2 tone paint, Indian Chief head dress on tank sides. Indian runner light (not functional) front Indian fender guard and mudflaps front and rear fenders. The exhaust was made using the front lower Vance amp; Hinze pipe and the stock rear head pipe with the stock cover with boot guard. No baffle, it sounds great, have had other Drifter owners saying quot;they have exhaust sound envyquot;... I love the sound as you pull a hill in fifth gear, there is sooo much torque there is usually no need to down shift to pull the hill as you do on other brands Harley included. Gobs of torque! This bike runs as good as it looks. Kamp;N air filter, Kawasaki synthetic oil. Drifter with a solo seat only and is the seat made by Corbin for Kawasaki. The solo seat is stiched all in Leather, the original was vinyl, but this has been recovered in genuine leather, now having a distressed look, the nosebag on the windshield is also brown leather. Nice Harley replica windshield. This bike starts, runs and rides excellent. Does not leak oil. These Drifters are all about the look, many many people look and always think it is an old Indian. Once the question about quot;what year is the Indian?quot; is answered they often just say beautiful... So if you are ready to receive compliments everytime you ride, this bike could be right up your alley. The bike as it now sits is ready to ride, very good 500x16 Avon Speed/MastersTires having tons of tread left on them for years completing the Old Indian look.!!

Supercross Preview With Factory Kawasaki Riders Ryan Villopoto & Jake Weimer

Wed, 04 Jan 2012

In anticipation of this Saturday’s Supercross opener in Anaheim, California, Kawasaki invited a select crowd of enthusiasts and journalists to join their employees at the corporate offices in Irvine, California, for the annual Team Monster Energy Kawasaki pep rally. We sat down with defending SX champ, Ryan Villopoto, and his teammate, Jake Weimer, to get their perspectives on the upcoming season. Both men entered last season at less than 100%.

Kawasaki Z1R.

Thu, 09 Dec 2010

These two beautiful Z1R Kawasakis appeared at the annual Mooneyes Yokohama Custom show last weekend. With one sporting a street/strip look (spot the belly-scraping ride height and rigid rear struts) and the other undergoing a sort of modernisation, they both reminded me just how handsome and unique the original slab-sided Z1R was.  Judging by some of the other wild and weird exhibits I made a mental note to myself: must make sure I'm in Japan this time next year.

Beginning this week, Speed and Fuel TV will broadcast the Zero to Hero Challenge across several time slots. Both cable networks will treat viewers to an inside look at the process all contestants went through on their way to challenging Gadson on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway drag strip in May.
