Modern Legend: KAWASAKI Z900RS Custom
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "KAWASAKI Z900RS" custom by Webike community user "s.hayabusa". This is a special Yellow Ball Edition, replicating the color scheme of the early 1973 Z1 released in Europe. The tank and side cover emblems have been replaced with nostalgic old-style emblems, making it a dream machine for Z1 enthusiasts. The exhaust features the beautifully heat-colored titanium OVER Racing GP-PERFORMANCE Full Exhaust System. The exhaust pipes have been modified to an optimal length, enhancing high-rpm performance with minimal sacrifice in low-end power. Additionally, the forward-leaning pipe layout and the exhaust’s classic sound accentuate the neo-classic appeal and draw out the Z900RS charm even more.
The handlebar is equipped with the adjustable EFFEX EZ-FIT BAR Plus, allowing for a custom riding position. The suspension has been upgraded to an OHLINS Rear Suspension, which alleviates impact from the road and provides supple, refined movement. The rearsets feature high-quality, precision BABYFACE (Sato Racing) Rearsets. The dual bearings ensure smooth operation, and the machined knurling of the footpegs offers exceptional grip.
The front and rear wheels are the lightest aluminum forged wheels in GALE SPEED's history, the TYPE-SB1. The elegantly designed 10-spoke wheels provide flexibility during acceleration and deceleration. Their lightweight nature ensures nimble acceleration and maneuverability, making every ride even more enjoyable.
