Product Description
Any Kawasaki enthusiast will surely remember this manufacturer for its strong charactered high performance bikes. Kawasaki, formerly a well known airplane maker, started producing motorcycles using their high industrial standards used when making aircraft. Their 1966 model A-1 with a 250cc rotary valve, two cycle engine could move the light weight bike to an amazing 165km/h. This little king killer had a great impact on the industry back in those days, and shortly after the A-1, Kawasaki introduced the legendary 500SS Mach III, the fastest street going machine on the market. The difficult handling of the machine and its high speed had the enthusiasts calling her the "crazy mach".In 1972 they produced the first ever DOHC in-line four motorcycle engine and the Z900 debuted while sweeping every "BIKE OF THE YEAR" award around the world. From that point on, Kawasaki has been looked upon as a high performance motorcycle manufacturer. Every maker has its own high performance bike on the market, and especially the 400cc size in Japan. Kawasaki's is their new GPZ400R which appeared in February 1985. The GPZ400R was built under a different concept as compared with other manufacturers replica type bikes. Their's is not just another copy of a GP type racer, but a totally new styling, resulting from sophisticated aerodynamic wind testing. The scoop laden full fairing helps the GPZ400R achieve a fantastic 0.29 drag coefficient.
