Download or read book Kawasaki Superbikes written by Stefan R. Oehl and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2024-05-08 with total page 883 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Top of the Range Five years after the presentation of the legendary Z1, the end is reached for a model range. Lessons learned from the development of previous models lead to another milestone of motorcycle history. Kawasaki presented a technological and optically mature superbike with a 1000cc engine for private use, which simultaneously dominated racing and also appeared in a legendary movie. Converted into a mean machine, its driver Jim took on a motorcycle gang equipped with high powered technology based on the same model. Unfortunately, he lost his fight to “maintain right” within a post-apocalyptic and lawless scenario, but his legacy lives on. This volume tells both stories and also presents the work of some of the most talented bike builders in the world. Have you ever wondered what the correct owner tools are for your vintage Kawasaki? You will find the answer here as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Golden Era The story of how Kawasaki superbikes appeared on the stage and evolved over almost two decades is presented by Stefan R. Oehl in 8 volumes. The code name for the Z1 project “New York Steak” was already invented in 1971. Designed in accordance with the secret “The three S Styling Concept” (“Slim, Sleek and Sexy”), it would be the beginning of a legendary superbike series. Initially the major market for the Z1 was the USA and so the first road tests with the latest prototype versions (“V-bikes”) took place on US highways and raceways in early and mid 1972. To keep the project a secret, the engineers painted the motorcycles in Honda blue and installed Honda badges on the tank. Kawasaki presented its first four cylinder four stroke superbike the 900 Super Four Z1 to the public in 1972 on the bicycle and motorcycle exhibition IFMA in Cologne Germany.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The winner takes it all It is 1982. Like the year before Eddie Lawson captures the title Superbike champion. His bike is a converted Z1000 J type S1. 1982 was also the end of the seven year 1000cc AMA competition. For safety reasons AMA decided to reduce the maximum capacity to 750cc. His first championship inspired Kawasaki to develop a limited and street legal version of the Z1000 S1 racer. A tank badge bears the number 1 and the signature of Eddie Lawson surrounded by bay leaves. Only the 1982 model is a genuine “Eddie Lawson Replica”. It was followed by the 1983 “Superbike Replica” in two colour schemes and a modified tank badge. In 1984 the final version of this model range appeared, fitted with an 1100cc engine, two colour schemes and some other minor changes. After a second production year with an unchanged Z1100 R the chapter was closed in 1985.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And Then There Were Three The Z1000 A2A represented the “Top of the Range” for just a view months, “And Then There Were Three.” In 1979, a series of new Kawasaki superbike models appeared, with the most robust 1 litre Kawasaki engine version so far. The Z1000 Mk.II, Z1000 ST and Z1000 SHAFT not only looked futuristic, but they were also equipped with most of the features that customers expected from sport and touring motorcycles at the end of the seventies. Despite these advancements the bikes remained affordable. The challenge of environmental legal requirements related to the emissions of an engine demanded improvements, and how these were incorporated can be found here. You wanted to know details about a kardan-drive for a motorcycle? The answers can also be found here, the fourth book about the history of Kawasaki superbikes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The End of a Legend The era of the superbikes has just started, and it is already the end of a legend. The last 903cc four cylinder four-stroke engine equipped Zed appeared on the stage. The reader of this volume will get to know about the build-up of an almost perfect Zed. Almost because it didn’t have the 1-liter engine which the customers of that era now expected. The 903cc engine was fitted to the new Z900 series. These Kawasaki top models appeared in 1976. The sale numbers, however, were low and the series ended in 1977 with the Z900 A5. “Code Z” tells the story.

Book excerpt: ‘You don’t get to be six-time British Superbike Champion without having talent and desire’ – Wayne Rainey, three-time 500cc World Champion Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne knows what it is like to live on the edge. The most successful rider in British Superbike history, he is the only person to have won the championship six times. Shakey is a living motorbike legend, with legions of fans across the country. For the first time Shakey tells his life story, from being abandoned as a newborn baby in a London hospital, to multiple brushes with the law and working night shifts on the London Underground to fund his early racing career. Whether it was on his BMX or joyriding through Kent, the only thing Shakey ever wanted to do was race motorbikes. Once he had got his break, Shakey quickly developed a reputation as one of the most exciting riders of his generation, and the thrill of every victory, every chicane and every overtake, as well as the hospital visits and painstaking recovery, is relived in heart-pumping detail. Unshakeable is an incredible story of winning and risk-taking, of horrendous crashes in which he nearly lost his life, of Ducatis and monster motorhomes, and of hard-fought glory in one of the most exciting and dangerous sports on the planet. Told with breathless exhilaration, Shakey’s story is one of inspiration, break-neck speed and a life lived truly on, and over, the limit.
