  • Well-presented Z1300 following an extensive restoration

  • Running very well and a fresh tune-up of the carbs
  • It comes complete with a current V5C old MOT certificates and receipts

The Kawasaki Z1300 was notably unusual for its large-displacement 1,300 cc straight-six engine made by Kawasaki from 1979 to 1989. Previously referring to the Z1300 as an Autobahn stormer, when reviewing their 'Machine of the Year' competition results in 1979 after readers had voted for the Triumph Bonneville as the winner, UK weekly newspaper Motor Cycle News stated "Kawasaki, with their Z1300, a superb example of technology by anyone's standards, have gone overboard in many people's minds." It was first released at the Cologne Motor Show in Germany in 1978.

This well-presented Z1300 has been the subject of an extensive overhaul of the paint and cycle parts. Restored to a high standard the work was photographed when carried out. Beautifully painted in Kawasaki’s Holly Green and with good chrome, there have been many original parts used in its transformation. Described as ‘running very well’ the iconic machine has benefitted from a fresh tune-up of the carbs. The machine is offered with a current V5C, old MOT documentation and some old invoices.
