Fantastic... What are the chances? Mooking at that think I'm thinking Yamaha, but I don't know why.

Ratbike, is the traditional term. I remember an attempt to launch the term "s**tfighter" though :)

Pop along to kingston uni, and you might find a streetfight TL1000R parked up. It looks like proper trash...but is fast. And sounds good...

Actually, I think it's the results of 2 or 3 "offs" :lol:

What did the rest of the writing on the road say? "............ only"

If those 2 got together and had a kid, it'd probably look a bit like this

It's an aircool Kawasaki 4, which looking at the block is most probably a 550, possibly a 750, and seeing the anti-dive actuators on the forks it likely started life as a GPZ.

Yeah. I was ehh, just about to say that. Beat me again Sid.

Anti-dive actuators. Forks. Block. Totally gives the game away.


And from the looks of things... yeah, there is a kitchen, somewhere in the British Isles, missing its entire complement of recessed ceiling lights.

It also has twin exhausts, a steering damper (poss aftermkt) and thoes weird swingarms with the eccentric adjusters.

Does that change anything?

Kwak Zephyr?

Does that change anything?No. If anything it confirms, particularly the eccentric adjusters. Steering damper not standard on any Kwak of the possible types, so doesn't assist in the identity.

Kwak Zephyr?No, the bblock and the calipers are wrong.

Yes, but does it have a alternating cam shim crank with a fuel-injected torque-adjusting valve shaft? :-k

Oh, and brilliant picture Ricardo!

Only on the '84 Mongolian export model.
