Testing out the New Kawasaki KZ 1197 Build Against Hayabusa

Jack Korpela, Kawasaki KZ 1000

In this video we take you for a motorcycle ride on our freshly built and restored 1977 Kawasaki KZ 1000 resto rod and compare it to a modern 2014 Suzuki Hayabusa. Along with our drag racing bike buddy “7.0” Joe Koenig we take a ride to Clearwater Beach, FL, where I show him the Kawasaki KZ upgrades, which include an 1198 c.c. Wiseco piston kit, bigger camshafts from Web Cam, 36 mm Mikuni radial flat slides, custom paint, a two inch stretched arm, an LTD seat, Lester mags and more. Enjoy this look at our motorcycle restoration and let us know which bike you would rather take for a ride, the classic Kawasaki KZ or the Suzuki Hayabusa and why?
