Here's a few pictures of my 1988 KZ1000P Police Bike. She begain life as a Tampa Florida Police KZ1000, but once I got my hands on her, she was transformed into a ''Rat/Drag/Bobber''.
Kawasaki KZ1000P Ex-Police Motorcycle
I removed all of the unnecessary items that come stock on this bike like the airbox, center stand, 4-in-2 exhaust, handle bars, windshield, hardbags, rear fender, shocks, and swingarm. I then began the Rat process. I hardtailed her with struts, I put on a lightweight clubfoot drag swingarm 6'' over stock. I also put on a drag spoke with an 150/18 Avon tire on the rear. I then lowered the front end 2'' in the forks and put on a set of Clubman Cafe handle bars turned upside down. I found a Vance & Hines 4 into 1 exhaust and massaged it into place with the baffles removed of course. Last, I rebuilt and rejetted the carbs, put pod air filters on her and got out the rattle can of flat black paint. This is the final product, located in Atlanta, Georgia, and believe me she is one of a kind!
