Bad ass Wee, that is a bike that old or young should appreciate. I have lusted after them for a long time.

actually that 6n2n1 doesn't sound as good as a 6n1 which I don't have, I do have a new old Kerker 6n2, I get excited every now and then and start looking for a 6n1 but can only find junk.

Nice to see a classic in such beautiful condition. As iconic as the Kz650, and perhaps the Kz1300.

Still looks great! I'm old (51) and recall this bike. The late 70's early 80's were exciting years for all the Jap bikes.

The KZ1300 was a turd..and prone to break cranks when modded for power.

I remember a guy had one with a 6 into 1 DG pipe I think it was. It was stock except for pipe and jetting. I could barely out run him on my modded KZ1000 Z1R with headwork, cams and a 1075cc piston lit. also had 29mm smoothbores. man that was some fun racing back then.

I had a 83 GPz 1100 when my boss had a 79 red CBX.He couldn't touch my GPz.But it was a nice bike I believe in those days the CBX ran 11.66 the GS1100E ran 11.34 and the GPz ran 11.18.That was a fun time as I had three GS1100E's.
