1996 KZ1000P

If you've seen even a fraction of the posts on my blog, you know that stock bikes aren't my thing....but since a 1978 KZ650 was my first bike, I have a soft spot for the Kawasaki KZ. I've seen the KZ1000's making awesome time on the 1/4 mile not to mention the badassery that was the KZ in Mad Max.

My problem is that since I'm always working on a bike, I never have one to just hop on and ride. I'm saving up for a Shovelhead but in the meantime, I couldn't resist picking up this former Twin Falls County Sheriff bike. This thing runs like a dream. It is the antithesis of every bike I've had. It's quiet, fast, smooth, comfortable, all the electronics work, has good gauges and is clean. Long live the KZ!
