Z900 Owner / restorer,
By helmut abeling (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Original Kawasaki Z1 & Z900 (Bay View Books) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book for those who want to rebuilt their bike to original. It is a guided tour trough the Z1 and Z900 world of Kawasaki. It tell in great detail the differences with the various models and the corresponding partnumbers. It is not a mecanical how to book though.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource for the restorer,
By Michael A Hasemann (Fair Oaks, Ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Original Kawasaki Z1 & Z900 (Bay View Books) (Hardcover)
I was very impressed with the collection of quality photos and information on original, stock bikes. If you own and are restoring a 1973 model like me, you MUST buy this book! Nowhere have I seen the intricate details and differences pointed out as they are in this book. It has been invaluable in identifying parts correct for my bike, and has more than paid for itself in money saved by NOT buying incorrect parts.

A Kawboy's Tale,
By David Inman (Chepachet, Rhode Island United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Original Kawasaki Z1 & Z900 (Bay View Books) (Hardcover)
This book features some great photography and good information. I would not classify it as technical at all. It is more historical. A great conversation piece. If you are a Kawasaki fan it is a must have. If you are a restorer the pictures are priceless. Enjoy this book!
