“What makes it stand out is its colour. The green paint is a perfect example of what used to be cool — it’s like a time capsule. Back then a Kawasaki was a Kawasaki; it was green, and it didn’t look like a Yamaha or a Honda. Back then, the colour made the bike.”
But then, this isn’t just any 1983 Kawasaki KZ1000R2 — it’s a limited run, special edition Superbike, named after Eddie Lawson, four-time winner of the 500cc World Championship during the 1980s, the 1981-1982 AMA Superbike champion and the 1984 AMA Pro Athlete of the Year. Lawson retired from full-time motorcycle racing in 1990, but came back in 1993 to win the Daytona 200 for the second time.
The bike has had two owners since new, is licensed & registered. The bike is an unrestored example however it was resprayed a number of years ago. The bike has a genuine 280000km on the clock.
