Ich hatte sie 6 Jahre geiles Bike

i owned one for a few years in the 80's. probably the sweetest bikes i've ever ridden. seat was great and a cross between sports and tourer so fun but comfortable for 100s of Ks. coz of DFI it was a slow pig until the boost came on but boost gauge let you know so no nasty surprises. effortlessly get up over 200kph but thirsty at speed so needs fuel every 45m - 1hr. you could go further but why risk running out of fuel and blowing the turbo which had no electric oil pump. one of the bad things was idling it down. another was the need to replace chains/sprockets/tyres regularly... but for an old air cooled rehashed motor made of parts, the turbo rush was really something to feel. kinda wish they had continued turbo bike production across many models.

My 84 was the best bike I ever rode and owned. Ported jet's it would run 165 and would do it all day long. I'd love to have another as it was trustworthy at any speed. Best memories ever.

Great bike. Lame video.. 👎

I love Rick Brett.

I know I had the 900r amazing how much has changed…i had a work friend get his 600 in 85-86 he spent a small fortune to have it custom painted in green ...really cool to see them occasionally in restored condition today

21 years old when I Owned one in 89…❤️

Dealer friend/customer said the engine was designed before they worked out a suitable frame.

There was a lot of Hair in those days 😆

As slow as a rd125 . Or slower

amazing

I’m glad I was there all those years ago, happy days

Still good looking to this day, especially early 16 inch front wheel version, i have owned 2 of these.

I owned the GPz750 non turbo and put a Bassani 4 into 1 pipe on it. Man, the sound was beautiful.

nice

Still a beautiful, contemporary looking bike almost 40 years later. And man, seeing the tach and speedo gauges brought back fond memories.

My FAV 80s Kawasaki! All because Tom Cruise rode one in Top Gun and the beginning of Top Gun Maverick.

Unforgetable the Fly on two Wheels on Top Gun...

I just bought one today 😁

I own a 86 a3 in red white and blue. Probably the best machine I have ever owned.

At 8:15 you can see oil burn coming from his exhaust. Yikes!! Apparently some oil getting past the turbo already.

Ich Liebe und bewundere das Motorrad heute noch Danke für die Geile Zeit damals 😍

I road with a guy Scott Parker..he put that thing at like 130 hanging off the back..was an like 87 or so..I was rocking the ex500

8:24 smokin a bit

Those tyres are scary

I has one back in 1991. It was the most exciting motorcycle I owned until my turbo bandit and now my ZH2.

I swear to God I need to get one Gpz900r in my life, I will come back when my dream is complete. I should be getting my motorcycle license next year, the rest is money saving now.

Still sounds great, wish i could smell the exhaust fumes , great memories.

Only problem I had with my Ninja was boiling the engine in hot weather in grid locked traffic in London. The head had to be skimmed to the max putting the compression up to about 12:1. God, that bike was fast!

Thanks for this it was great to watch the old beast!

Handle like a train, but what a motor and look.

I had one 1985-91. Thing flew. I hit 155 on it and had it dragging pegs and fairing a few times. Great bike and legendary engine.

Remember it well!

That was quite a bike my God for 1984 !!!! There's a whole lotta bikes and cars that 750 would tear'um new one today in 2022 !!!!....especially with modern rubber !!!

Two up on a gpz 750turbo and doing 100mph on the M4, a 2gear drop with a ford xr3 flashing lights and toting his horn, I think we got to over 150mph in a blink of an eye. Yet another amazing bike from Kawasaki , my all time favourites H1F and the zxr400.

If you owned this bike and didn't know about the 3 little tricks that brought this engine to 170hp at the rear wheel. You missed out.

After Honda's Interceptors raised the sportbike bar, the other Japanese manufacturers went back to the drawing board. The efforts resulted in legendary machines: FJ1200, GSX1100, and GPZ900R.

amazing

Tervehdys

Great Kawasaki promo. I’m sure I saw it with subtitles in Japanese a few ago perhaps? Or Dutch? Whatever, great film and great bike. They’re still making ‘em just like this pretty well thirty eight years on. No massive strides since the 9R. F.I.? My 1000H had it in ‘80. 17”? Upside downies? Just decoration and detail. The 9R was a red revolution. 😎

Haven’t tyres come a long way

They enjoyed a couple of years on top until Suzuki brought the GSX-R to the states in 1886 and that was the end of that. I bought the 86 GSX-R 1100 new at 18yrs old. Blew away every bike on the road.

Death machine.

“It doesn’t seem to have turbo lag, it just seems to get faster and faster and faster”

i am 16 years old now and i am the lucky owner of a gpz900 r 😍 i am soo stoked to finally ride it legally 😏🤭 when im 23

this is like porn for transformers

I own 1 had many bikes in my time Probably 1 of the most balanced bikes of all time legend Don't hesitate to buy 1

Enjoyed watching this a lot! Thanks for posting it. I own an '86 Ninja ZX600R in red, white, and blue, that I purchased in '90. Still love it. No one cared about them then, but now I get complements on it where ever I ride.

My Kawasaki GPz900R (1985-Ninja-blue-grey) with a short open Yoshimura pipe is until now..still the best sounding motorcycle i've ever heard in my life...and I had many motorcycles..a few Suzuki GSX1100R's ,Suzuki GSX1000R K8 and the Suzuki B-King with open Bodis exhaust..

Had a 550 LTD 81 then 82 1000 LTD. Now have a 86 ELIMINATOR 900 and 2 1987 ZL1000 Eliminators. One is mint and only has 4900 miles on it. Kawasaki let’s the good times rollllllllll!
