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. Bear |

The Old Bike Barn Story
Ever wonder where the paw in our logo comes from? Our Founder was given the nickname “The Bear” while he was in the military. Other companies may use paws in their logo, but here at OBB, there’s a man that stands behind this one!
It took a couple of years to rehabilitate my body and career, thankfully the military paid for my reeducation and I studied web design and business. Because I couldn’t ride at the time, the Internet became my outlet to stay active in the sport. I built a hobby web site called www.oldbikebarn.com. The site had, pictures my of bike builds, and my rant’s about bikes and the industry. I was selling off my personal collection of vintage parts on the site to pay the bills… soon I began to receive hundreds of emails weekly asking me for parts for the older bikes I loved. Remember, this is back in the late Nineties, early 2000′s and the Internet was not what it is today.
I seized this opportunity and started to source reproduction and new parts for my site. I moved into my first commercial location; where things really took off, the web site was getting lots of traffic, and I could barley keep up.
That’s when the one-man-show became a company made up of motorcycle lovers/enthusiasts. My younger brother Billy came aboard at that time and has since grown through every level of the company to become the Director of Operations and my right hand man. Today, the company has grown to have a vast line of products covering hundreds of models; 1969 to present day.
Old Bike Barn is dedicated to anything motorsports but with a paticuler focus on supporting 10-year and older motorcycles and the people that ride them.
