Ewen Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 You're only human I've got a real yearning for the old school Kawasaki 1000cc air cooled four with the square slab tank. Was it the Z1R? Or Z1000R? Something like that. They probably aren't that great by modern standards but damn they look so hard. I wouldn't even have to ride it, just to own one would be enough. (Does jism damage paintwork?) As I remember, there was the Z1000 ST (shaft drive) and the Z1000 chain drive that had the squareish tank, but fairly subdued styling, then there was the Z1R that added a triangular side panel and small half fairing. Silvery blue was THE colour:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I dunno why they don't abandon chain and sprocket drive on bikes. It's such a PITA. OK so you lose like 3% power... who cares? I'd love a R1 with shaft drive. There's way too much BS fashion bike design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
