1972 to 76 Kawasaki Z1 "Concours" Restorations for sale or to order. Z1, Z1A, Z1B and Z900A4 models. Kawasaki Z900s have always been our speciality and we sell around 45 to 50 Z900s every year. Generally the Z1-900s we sell range from around £2500 to £8000 (for show condition). However, each year we restore two or three Z900s aiming for 100% "as new condition" and the best quality we can achieve. These are much more expensive (see photos below). Each bike is completely stripped down and re-built using genuine new parts where possible and to original factory specification. Work starts from checking and re-jigging the frame etc.. Work is completed by either by Steve Smethurst, or ourselves. The concours machines we restore are either for sale or built to order. We will be starting another restoration in July / August 2008 if you are interested please ring us to discuss details. Their final price depends on their exact specification and the fine details and cost of the work completed. Prices are high because of the cost of parts and the time involved. It would be possible for us to "restore" a Z1 for much less but we would be compromising on the quality of the job, which is not what we want to do! The final detail of each bike is up to the customer, for example if you want metal plug caps (which were only fitted new in the UK) we can fit them! Each bike is road tested and ready to go and will of course be warranteed. In addition we will be pleased to help with any advice, problems and servicing at any time. Please phone or email for more information. For Kawasaki Z1-Z900 model history and road tests click here These are some recent projects (see photos below); 1. 1975 Z1B 900 concours restoration.
