Classic Z1 KZ900 KZ1000





As an owner of a KZ900 I’ve got a real soft spot for this machine and it’s siblings, and when it comes to the performance of Z1 – KZ900 – KZ1000, you can easily witness a hint of pride when owners talk about their bike. Terrific specs and outstanding design of this bike make it a perfect super bike of seventies.

It wouldn’t be wrong to say that Kawasaki Z1 – KZ900 – KZ1000 is a multifaceted bike. What it means is that you can actually use it for touring purposes, rallies, bike runs, etc. Moreover, you will always find it a good commuting bike which implies the fact that the bike is truly wonderful.

.One great thing about this bike is that there are several performance parts that can be fitted to this bike to get a more refined performance. A big bore kit, for instance, can be used; this can be as big as 1400cc. You can also opt for carbs, modern rear shocks, oil coolers, brake kits, etc. But, it is a fact that you will always find your Z1 – KZ900 – KZ1000 performing in the optimum way even with its standard configuration. Here’s a few items I have installed on my bike with great results.

Billy Joel’s Cafe Racer in NYC with the Royal Enfield and Old Bike Barn Crew

I would like to extend great thanks to Keith Mangino and Mike DePalo of Royal Enfield for the Great hospitality at the NYC Cycle Word Motorcycle show as they pulled out all the stops for the Old Bike Barn staff and our pro Photologue Tristan Brand. It was great to get up close and personal with Billy Joel’s Famous Royal Enfield Cafe Racer and meet the builder Mike DePalo.

In a follow up conversation with Keith Mangino Regional Sales Manager NY I was very please to find out the event was outstanding for Royal Enfield with much interest from fans new and old alike!

Keith went on to say “It is very obvious that interest in the Classic Motorcycle and Café style bikes is growing in the US as our booth was extremely crowded on all three days”

That’s good news for all us vintage and Cafe Racer guys, I’m beginning to thing this moment is picking up steam, and that we will continue to see more interest in Classically styed bikes and Cafe Racers.

The Fact is these bikes are just plain fun, no they don’t have the power of the latest 120 hp Road Rocket but I increasing find that those bikes are only fun at the Track and I enjoy more realistic bikes with gobs of style for the street.

Here are a few key links to Classic Motorworks / Royal Enfield USA.

I think Mike at Royal Enfield may be getting some more demands for bikes styled like the bike pictured below that he built for Billy Joel. Here’s some shots me and the team checking it out. Mike can be Reached at U.K. Motorsports LTD Long Islands Exclusive Enfield dealer.
