Kawasaki Heavy Industries is one of the largest corporations in Japan producing a wide range of products from rolling stock to ships. After taking over the ailing Meguro Motorcycle Company they began manufacturing motorcycles under the Kawasaki name in the early sixties, first continuing development of the K1 BSA A10 copy but soon moving on to build a reputation for high-performance 2-stroke twins and triples. In the early '70s, the four-stroke four-cylinder Z1 was initially developed as a 750cc to compete with the new Honda SOHC 750, however, Kawasaki held the bike back until it could be increased in capacity to set a new benchmark for Superbike performance. With its DOHC 900cc engine offering a top speed of over 130mph, it easily became the fastest mass-produced bike in the world. In 1986 they launched the Eliminator series of custom-style cruisers with the KL600 using a slightly modified engine borrowed from the more sporty Ninja 600.

This Eliminator 600 being offered at 'no reserve', is presented in standard trim including an original chrome exhaust system. A rare model in the UK, it has been stood for a while so it will need some recommissioning before use. The bike is being offered with a service and owner's manual, some spare cables, the old US Title, 20 old MOTs, invoices amounting to over £2,200 for servicing work carried out over the years and the current V5C.
