Kawasaki Z1000
Kawasaki engineers have raised the bar in the naked bike arena with the introduction of the newly-redesigned 2007 Z1000. The Z1000 gives both increased performance and the styling to complement the visceral riding enjoyment that it provides. We are confident that this brand new Kawasaki will be desired by both enthusiasts and regular motorcyclists.
This latest model of the Z1000 shows off a seriously improved performance capability that is created by refocusing engine and framework characteristics for serious street riding. With one liter of superbike technology, the Z1000’s boosted engine performance gives us greater enthusiasm when passing or pulling out of corners.
This version of Kawasaki nakedness has been tuned to satisfy the most demanding musclebike riders. Not only will its reconfigured torque measurements provide low-end get-up-and-go, but the increased pull follows through its mid-range, giving the rider extra thrust for conquering most road challenges.
Placing maneuverability at the forefront of the engineering task, Kawasaki has developed a new engine sub-frame and re-engineered chassis rigidity balance to provide truly outstanding feedback, enabling the rider to read and respond to all motorcycle behaviors, in all speed ranges.
Improvements in mass centralization and revised ergonomics have significantly enhanced the synergy between rider and machine. The handlebars of the Z1000 have been positioned closer to the rider, and combined with a slimmer saddle, the result offers a more compact riding position. This, in turn, lets the rider take full advantage of the motorcycle’s greater stability and sharp, nimble, handling characteristics, while making short work of their favorite ribbon of asphalt.
This particular model, perhaps more than any other, speaks to the intrinsically raw desire of the dedicated motorcyclist. While providing maneuverable, functional transportation in any daily environment, it provides the ability to unleash the fun-seeker in every rider. And it does it with Kawasaki performance and styling characteristics unmatched in the naked bike category.
