1976 Kawasaki Z900 - Lot 112
1976 Kawasaki Z900 Number: Z1501818 French registration Without reserve - Mechanical revolution: New frame design, Mikuni 26 mm carburettors. - Double front disc. - Global manufacturing: Production in both Japan and the USA, guaranteeing exemplary quality. Launched in 1976, the Kawasaki Z900 marked a decisive step in motorcycle history, following on from the legendary Z1B. Although the silhouette and spirit of the Z1 have been preserved, the Z900 is a truly re-engineered machine, with notable improvements to both engine and chassis. All this in a frame numbered from Z1F-085701, signifying the start of a new era for Kawasaki. The Z900 is distinguished by its redesigned bodywork, new instruments and a reworked electrical system for greater reliability. The engine, as powerful as ever, benefits from Mikuni 26 mm carburetors, offering a refined riding experience, even if a slight loss of power has been reported. At the front, the double brake disc, previously an option, now becomes standard for the European market, guaranteeing enhanced safety and performance for this demanding motorcycle. The Z900's frame, slightly heavier than that of the Z1, nevertheless improves handling, especially at high speeds, where this machine shines for its stability. The extra weight, estimated at around 25 lbs, is partly due to a stronger frame tube, enabling a smoother, more stable ride, particularly on fast, twisty roads. This example of the 1976 Kawasaki Z900 remains an icon of the '70s, combining style and raw power. If you're looking for a bike that's both iconic and ready to hit the road again after a possible refresh, this machine is an excellent choice for any Kawasaki enthusiast or collector. We recommend that future purchasers carry out the usual restarts required to keep these machines in the collector's museum.
