Z1100R For Sale - Genuine Eddie Lawson

[Tonka]

Genuine & Super Rare Z1100R Eddie Lawson - Only 18070 Miles

I am selling my genuine and super rare Kawasaki Z1100R Eddie Lawson as I need to reduce my motorbike collection from 9 to 5 as I need the space. Therefore, I have made the difficult decision to sell this Z1100R along with my Ducati 916 Foggy Rep, Suzuki GSXR750RR and a Yamaha XT500C.

I will list the details of this Z1100R below:

Only 18,070 miles from new (MOT's going back to 1995 that helps support this)
All round excellent condition (paintwork was redone back in 2007 and is holding up exceptionally well)
Kerker exhaust with 'sports' baffle fitted (sounds gorgeous and slightly loud)
Comes with original swingarm (handles much better with the one fitted though)
Will come with a new MOT (booked in for next Saturday)
New battery fitted
Comes with original long rear mudguard

The Suzuki GSXR750RR will be £11,000 or best offer. It only has 6,000 miles and comes with a spare front fairing!!! (bought it just in case as they are like rocking horse poo) It has a bespoke can fitted (stunning sound) and also comes with the original exhaust as well.

The last one I saw for sale in the same condition went for £11,500, this was nearly 12 months ago as well. Therefore I think the price is very fair.

Lovely bike but I have to agree the price is a tad high

Not an 1100 but this thou sold in February.

I think 1100s are considerably more desirable though.

The 1000R is a J3 with a fairing and different seat on it.

The 1100 is a different animal and significantly and subtly different and better. Things like the longer and braced swing arm, the extra frame bracing, that stonking motor that goes even better with carbs than FI on the GPZ.

Excuse the criticism Tonka, but all that one needs is an original front mudguard (guess who has one) genuine shocks (Zephyr 750 almost identical if painted gold) and exhaust, for which the Kerker is a perfectly acceptable alternative because you'll never find an original..

Thanks for the insightful information. Tonka, looks a much tidier bike and as with everything it is worth whatever someone is prepared to pay.

[Coose]

That's a lovely thing, good luck with your sale!

Now, where's that GSXR....

You can't call an 1100R a 'Genuine Lawson Replica' as he only raced a 1000! If you want to dismiss the 1000R as a J3 you could say the 1100R is a GPZ1100 with a few changes, they all share many interchangeable parts. Lawson had moved on to Yamaha after 1982, so Kawasaki dropped the reference to Lawson and is one of the reasons given for painting the 1983 UK bikes white....
The only real Lawson Rep is the one that the US got for 1982... We Europeans had the 1983 Z1000R2 Superbike Replica (commonly referred to as the Lawson Replica, but not by Kawasaki), which was more than a J3 with a fairing and seat change. In addition to those items, the front discs are 10mm larger, yokes, handlebars, clocks, rear shocks, cams and carb jets and I'm sure a few more things differ. As the owner of a 1000R2 for 20 years, I've spent considerable time looking for parts, only to find many J parts aren't compatible....
This was followed for 1984 by the Z1100R, which Kawasaki didn't refer to as a Lawson or even Superbike Replica.
I can't understand why people think the 1100R is 'more desirable' than the 1000R, when the Lawson association and race heritage (if there is any) doesn't support that line of thinking.
I'm amazed at the asking prices of all Zeds, with some 'standard' 900 & 1000's into 5 figures! Glad I bought mine before people thought of them as investments... still, they're all only worth what someone else is prepared to pay for them and how strong their rose tinted specs are....
Sold my CBX6 (£3,000) to buy the Z (£1,600) and previously sold my lovely Z1R (which at the time people thought ugly) for even less and struggled to find buyers for either.... oh how times have changed!
Enjoy a safe summer riding...
