Big Six still going strong. THAT IS HOW TO show the mighty Z. No music, no comments, just let the Autonahn Stormer play it’s tune! Thanks for sharing this magnificent bike 👍
"The idea is to die young, as late as possible". BRILLIANT. But what a lump to pedal around a circuit ! I had the CBX 1050 Six & that was a handful on a track. You guys are a Heroes.
I rode a bored -out turbocharged KZ 1300 years ago...its was an EXPERIENCE I'll never forget...the SOUND and POWER of that bike was incredible!...nothing really like it before or since (even though I did go over 200 mph on a modified 99 Busa!) Being close to 70 now I've slowed up quite a bit and am now ridin a 1977 KZ650 with a 4-1 Kerker header....goin back to the beginning I guess...(but its still FUN!) cheers, Mike.
My mate had a Z13 turboed and bored to 1440cc , around 220rwhp. Amazing for the time , the biggest problem was not being able to alter gearing because of the shaft drive .would run through redline right to nearly 12000rpm, possibly around 180mph real speed
Cor! This takes me back to when I was a mere whipper-snapper. I was nineteen and awaiting collection for a date. He picked me up on one of these. Shit off a shovel springs to mind. Nice memories too.
Sublime musique que ce 6 cylindres, par contre les freins doivent connaitre l' enfer lol. Bravo a ces passionnés a voir les photos je suis de leur génération 1300 Kawa, 1000 R 350 rdlc 500xt etc etc . Pour ce qui est de l' autocollant KOOL, ils le distribuaient a l' entrée du circuit Paul Ricard pour le Bol ' Or il était parfait pour aller sur la plaque d'immatriculation .
Its good to see a late 70s superbike (with a touring bias) out there hauling ass , performance is definately not bad for a 300kg bike , add a rider thats 400kgs being chucked around like that , that Z1300 was always under rated , I had 2 in my life , in the early 1983/84 , one was a stock bike with Kerker 6 into 2s , the other was bored out to a 1500 and turboed for good measure . I still love the sound of them and getting another is on my bucket list , a stock one .
Great bike, great video, great sound!. Really nice to see older bikes being ridden hard. Thanks for posting this video Sir. From a Kawasaki rider till the day I die!.
That guy has balls! I pushed a used trade in, one of those quite hard in the late 80's when offered a free test drive, by a friend and they are long, heavy and not a great bike if ridden hard! On bends, they want to go straight and let you know it! (See how he slows way down before the apex. Very sensible rider. No trail braking on this monster!). After the ride I told my friend, (the dealer) they would make a great bike with a sidecar, towing an Airstream. He concurred! It was however a major hit, engineering wise with gobs of torque. I loved every minute. Great video. Thanks!
That sound to me is how Beethoven sounds to classical music lovers. And you handle it so well sir. I had one back in 1984 and I’m thinking of finding a one again. Great video.
Merci beaucoup ! Fantastic z1300 and this sound. Remembers me when I visited Paul Ricard with my RD400 in 1989, in a vintage practise on the trac, between RC30. Was funny, but the Metzeler ME99 died soon. Greetings from Germany
The sound of the bike is brutal👍the trumpets of jericho ! You are nice guys- respect for the nice work on the Kawasika Z1300, but cut of the tail of the bike!
Die Young as Late as possible . Couldn't have said it better............ What a Massive , HEAVY behemoth to throw around like that !😮. Sounds WONDERFUL Singing it's Six-pack Siren Song .
Bike makers build small 20,000 rpm motors that hold together. Never underestimate the big four.makers abilities. My old 600 ninja at 11,000rpm could run forever at redline. Watch endurance racing hr after hr of redline runs. Sweet

Excellent video and fantastic sound ! I really liked the photos at the end with the people involved - terrific ! Can you please tell me where is the microphone mounted ? You get excellent engine sound and very little wind noise !
Le son d'un six en ligne. Un "je ne sais pas vraiment trop quoi". J'adore les V8 - surtout ceux qui en crache! - mais un six en ligne - phasé à 120 degrés. Nécessairement. C'est ça.
Merci pour ce beau moment de circuit, quel jolie vidéo ! Y a des freinages d'anthologie dans cette vidéo. Le 1300 Z à vraiment eu une préparation qui métamorphose cette grosse mémère c'est Incroyable. Elle pèse combien préparé comme ça on est bien en dessous des 300 kilos d'usine ? Bravo à tous !
Absolutely stunning, the noise is music to my ears, brings back so many memories of the 80's, fantastic riding skills --- RESPECT

Just wow. Sounds like an F1! I used to love watching the cafe racers back when Kenny Roberts rode for Yamaha Factory. Now super bike. Great stuff!
awesome noise and pretty decent
round the turns too
Much more fun than riding my Z13 around Slough on a Saturday night. Although, that was pretty darned good before speed cameras became common.
Somehow a Z1300 and riding it on a track never came into my mind as a thing. It’s performance was quite impressive.
Its good to see a late 70s superbike (with a touring bias) out there hauling ass , performance is definately not bad for a 300kg bike , add a rider thats 400kgs being chucked around like that , that Z1300 was always under rated , I had 2 in my life , in the early 1983/84 , one was a stock bike with Kerker 6 into 2s , the other was bored out to a 1500 and turboed for good measure .

great sound, good quality video
I think I just had an eargasm!!!
The greatest internal combustion noise in ALL of history, period (yep CBX boys it means even better than yours hahaha)
Wow, sweet. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
Not an easy bike to flick around but the sound is super. I especially listened to the downshifts and the inertia of the shaft drive.
So old and soooo cool Sound like a Porsche 911 !!!!
I love all the Zs! Even the 650, of course all the 900s, the 1,000 and naturally the 13/6.
Awesome video, balls of steel !!! And what a sound, they don't make em like that anymore........sadly

No soundtrack sweeter than an inline 6, especially at mid range RPMs
Always waiting for the straights, when his opponents get sucked into the intakes! Never heard a Z1300 with this RPM!
