Kawasaki, 1982 Kawasaki KZ1100

This 1982 Kawasaki KZ1100 is finished in metallic red and powered by an air-cooled 1,089cc inline-four paired with a five-speed transmission. Equipment includes an enclosed driveshaft, a stepped two-up seat, a four-into-two exhaust system, a chrome engine guard and grab handle, KYB air shocks, triple disc brakes, chrome mirrors, and both center and side stands. The bike is finished in metallic red with gold pinstripes and badges over a black double cradle frame. Equipment includes a stepped two-up seat, a grab bar, a chrome engine guard, a battery charger pigtail, bright airbox covers, chrome mirrors, and both center and side stands. The seller notes dents in the 5.7-gallon fuel tank.

Seven-spoke alloy wheels measuring 19″ up front and 16″ out back were mounted with Dunlop D404 tires in December 2019. Suspension consists of an air-adjustable leading-axle fork and twin KYB air shocks mounted to the driveshaft enclosure on the left and the swingarm on the right. Stopping power is provided by dual discs up front and a single disc at the rear.

Instrumentation includes an 85-mph speedometer, a tachometer with an 8,500-rpm redline, a fuel gauge, and indicator lights inset into the gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 13k miles, approximately 400 of which have been ridden by the seller.

The air-cooled 1,089cc DOHC inline-four features electronic ignition and an electric starter. The four 34mm Mikuni carburetors were reportedly cleaned and the battery was replaced in December 2019. An oil change was performed in October 2022. The seller notes pitting on the chrome four-into-two exhaust system.

Power is transferred to the rear wheel through a five-speed transmission and an enclosed driveshaft.
