An interesting way of “winterizing” a KZ1300! Six Cylinders and Studs!


Some folks just put em up in the shop and plug a batter tender into the. But some folks have other ideas…

And yes there’s a video! Now that sounds great!

I don’t want to bore you guys with too many 2 strokes… but..


When a bike like this gets unveiled it just can’t be denied. A NOS injected Kawasaki H2… for the street. A truly spectacular and frightening machine that commands respect.

Video. A few laps at Daytona International Speedway aboard the Team Hammer Kawasaki from this weekends races.


Thanks to Ron Gispanski the worlds greatest corner worker for the link.

A random sampling of some fantastic Trans America Trail (aka:TAT) photo’s.


There is a great thread over on ADV rider posting Trans America Trail photos and this post by Patrice Ninaud of RideDualSport.com fame really caught my eye. This is one of those rides that I think about a lot. When my daughter gets a bit older I think I might have to at least bite off a piece of this ride. Maybe the east coast portion for a start and see what happens.

Looking at these photos I realize just how much of this country I’m yet to see. Like I said, these are just a random sampling of his trip. Great Stuff Patrice! Thanks much!

Reader Ride. A cool Kawasaki KZ budget cafe build.


Reader Bruce Reed sends in this cool 1980 kz440. “We built from frame to paint here in our little garage”.

Great Stuff!

Another Cafe’d Dualsport! This time a KLR.


I’ve always thought the big thumper enduro bikes had a lot of potential as cafe builds. I’m seeing more of them lately.

This one is from Mark Asproyerakas: I replied to another post of a KLR café photo. Thought you would like to see mine. If you want to post go ahead. I can give details of all the bikes features.

Great Stuff! Must be great in the “urban jungle”.

EDIT: The “Shaken Fist”! A gallery of a one of a kind Kawasaki W650 Daily ride.


Edit: I mistakenly thought this was the “not available in the US W800 but it’s actually a W650 with a 724cc big bore kit installed… which does get the mind to thinking… 🙂

A big thank you to Rex Havoc at the Garage Project. Be sure to spend some time over there to check them out properly! They’re a well know outfit and their bikes have already been posted on the irreplaceable Pipeburn and BikeEXIF sites (please see the links section).

Reader Ride. Georgous KZ900.


Brian Mannon hooked me up to a few of his libraries so look for a lot of great shots of his personal bikes as well as his visit to Ohio vintage days!

Great stuff Brian!  Thanks Much!
