Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 1989 Kawasaki ZX-10. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
Introduced in 1988, the ZX-10 was also known as the Tomcat in certain countries. It also had another name when it was released: the fastest production motorcycle in the world, thanks to a 165 mile-per-hour top speed!
That was possible due to 997cc engine, which evolved from the unit out of the GPz1000RX but gained bigger valves and a higher compression ratio en route to producing 135 horsepower and 75 ft-lbs of torque. Surrounding the engine was Kawasaki’s first use of a perimeter aluminum frame, which helped keep weight at 541 pounds dry.
This example is VIN: JKAZXCB16KA018410.
The odometer shows 13,479 miles.
Maintenance:
Per the seller, “It had some old gas in it so the fuel system needs cleaning. There’s also a slight oil leak.”
Modifications:
Aftermarket exhaust.
Decals.
Black frame.
Inside of the tank:
It is riding on Michelin tires with date codes of 1610 and 0612.
The sale includes one key, spare forks, and carburetors.
