Description
This 1974 Kawasaki Z1 was reportedly imported to the US from Italy in 2025 and was purchased by the seller in 2026. Service performed in September of that year included checking and re-shimming the valves, cleaning and re-jetting the carburetors, cleaning and re-routing the wiring harness, and cleaning the fuel tank and timing advancer. The speedometer, ignition coils, spark plugs, valve cover gasket, clutch plates, clutch release mechanism, air box, and battery tray bolts were replaced, and additional work included bleeding the front brakes, repairing a sprocket cover bolt hole, changing the oil, and installing a Shindengen regulator/rectifier and a Pingel petcock. The bike is powered by a 903cc DOHC inline-four paired with a five-speed transmission and is finished in metallic brown with orange and white stripes. Features include chrome fenders, a two-up seat, a ducktail cowl, a front disc brake, four Mikuni carburetors, an electric starter, and a chrome four-into-four exhaust system. This Z1-A is now offered in Idaho with the seller’s service records and a clean California title in the seller’s name. Bodywork finished in metallic brown with orange and white stripes is mounted over a black-finished double-cradle frame. Features include a 4.7-gallon fuel tank, a ducktail cowl, chrome fenders, and both center and side stands as well as a black vinyl two-up seat that is complemented by a chrome rear grab bar, a grab strap, and folding passenger foot pegs.
