bombis Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Does anybody have info on the Z1000 from Kawasaki. Is it made in Thailand such as a couple other of their bikes? I am asking of course because I am wondering about the price. I got a 650R at the moment but would love to upgrade to the Z1000 if it is available for a decent (meaning "made in Thailand") price such as the 650R. What is the cost of this bike here. Anybody knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBikeBKK Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Nope, Z1000 is not made in Japan. Kawasaki only builds singles and twins in Thailand. If you want a Z1000 you'll need to find one already imported, order from an importer or import one yourself. Prices vary. Ride On! T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2010 Z1000 was co-developed alongside the 2011 Ninja 1000 (US name) Z1000sx (European name) so wherever the Z1000 is made and then sold, it's logical to assume the Ninja 1000 will be as well. (I like to post the pics of this beauty any chance I get.) I was surprised to learn the Ninja 1000 is different to the Z1000 nit noy in that it has a less aggressive foot peg position with 45mm higher, 10mm narrower bars, and the grip angle is slightly different. It also has an additional gallon fuel capacity and the the seat has more cushion. Ninja650shop is designing sport bars for her as we speak.
