My latest addition

Found this lovely 1984 KZ1100R locally. Purchased from original owner. A few period mods that are kind of cool. JML Swingarm, Mikuni flat slides, Wolf pipe. Pretty nice shape with 26,000k. Needs a few odds and ends but a wholesale clean up and it should look great. Has not turned a wheel in 15 years so hopefully no issues.

Will keep you posted.


Anyone know a good source for parts for the '84 1100R? I can't even find a parts fiuche.

Very nice score, she will be road worthy in no time.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

I could be wrong but I think there is a manual for your new find on this site under articles service manuals.

kzrider.com/modules/ServiceManuals/GPZ11...R_Service_Manual.pdf

You may also find a parts list here.

Very nice find.
Don't see many of them around, anymore.

I bumped into this guy on one some years back.
He needed a boost to get going again.
No kick starter on this one:

HI Wayne
Poking around on this site and noticed that you posted a question that I have as well....albeit you asked it in 2018! I have a 1984 KZ1100R ELR and would love to learn and share sources for parts as well as photos, experiences, etc. regarding our common interest/passion. Assuming that you may be interested and still have your bike feel free to respond here or contact me directly through email at craig1@shaw.ca
I live in BC/Canada//Craig
