KAWASAKIZ1000 2007 - 2008

　　The Kawasaki Z1000 was a standard motorcycle with a streetfighter style manufactured by Kawasaki between 2003 and 2016. The bike was first introduced in 1977 as a successor to the Kawasaki Z1/Z900.

　　In 2007, the Japanese motorcycle maker introduced the Kawasaki Z1000, an updated version of the previous Z1000 model, packing a de-tuned version of the engine used on the Kawasaki ZX-9R. Along with the restyling of the exhaust system, this de-tuned engine delivered less power than the ZX-9R but more low-mid rpm range.

　　In the visual department, the bike had standard features, such as a half fairing with integrated turn signals, a single headlight unit, a small wind deflector, a two-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system with a double silencer on each side, and three-spoke lightweight wheels.

　　The bike was built around a tubular backbone high-tensile steel frame with an adjustable 41 mm cartridge-type fork on the front and a Uni-Trak adjustable shock on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling capabilities.

　　As for the stopping power, the bike relied on two 300 mm discs engaged by four-piston calipers on the front wheels and a 292 mm disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent braking performance.

　　In the performance department, the 2007 Kawasaki Z1000 had installed a 953cc four-stroke liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 125 hp at 10,000 rpm and 99 Nm (73 lb-ft) torque at 8,200 rpm.
