I read last night on the Cycle World website that Kawasaki plans to build NEW cylinder heads for a few models from the 1970's!! :great: That is incredible and worthy of repeating here because I know we have quite a few Z-1, KZ-900, and KZ-1000 lovers in the COG. Their reasoning for this is simple, folks that own these bikes don't just want to look at them like museum pieces - they want to ride them! :beerchug: And you can only rebuild an old head so many times before you need a new one - true, true.
But I think this story says more about Kawasaki as a vendor and their commitment to us - their customers. Can you think of another manufacturer that gives damn about owners of their vintage gear?!? :??: Most are in such a hurry to turn the page on their discontinued products that they forget all about support of any kind. I can name the names of all the manufacturers that have left me high and dry after investing in their latest product in good faith. It is nice to know Kawasaki may not be yet another that walks away when the C14 production ends - I can't say the same for other makes and models..........
Enjoy the ride,
Jon
