Kawasaki KZ900 Motorcycle - Street (1976-1977)

The Kawasaki KZ900, produced from 1976 to 1977, is a legendary motorcycle that continued the powerful legacy of the earlier Z1. This iconic model was propelled by a robust 903cc air-cooled, DOHC, transverse-mounted inline-four engine, delivering approximately 82 horsepower. During its production, the KZ900 was offered in several trims. In 1976, riders could choose the standard KZ900A4, the groundbreaking KZ900-B1 LTD (the first Japanese factory custom, limited to 5,000 units), or the specialized KZ900-C1 Police model. For 1977, the KZ900-A5 was primarily a continuation of the 1976 A4 specifications, produced in the USA to utilize existing stock, alongside the KZ900-C2 Police model. There were no significant mid-cycle generation or engine changes between the 1976 and 1977 KZ900 models, ensuring consistent performance and design across these two years. The KZ900 was succeeded by the KZ1000 after 1977. FAQ:
