Yup got that same feeling . It's May 16 th I don't touch or ride anything mechanical . lol . Beautiful GPZ 1100 . Just starting my restoration on my 1100 GPZ Winter is here in Northern Ontario and it's 2023 . Eddie Lawson themed ... A real head turner Great vid's ... Ken
Fantastic machine! The entire GPz line were winners. In 550, 750, and 1100. All versions, especially '82 - '85.
Don't forget the gpz 305. Mine got 70mpg.
and especially the...Ninja...the GPz900r .. I had that beast..back in 1989..and..I drove a GPz1100 (same colour) in 1984.. :)

Superb motorcycle, I had the GPZ550 H2 which was basically a scaled down 1100B2. I regret never getting the 1100B2.
Great vlog, thank you for taking me back in time, i bought a new one when i was 24 years old, it was a great bike, the injection was the icing on the cake, no throttle lag and the hp was just unreal 😎
I LOVE this moto-vlog style of video! Don’t stop with the showroom style walk-around show-offs of your bikes that you’ve always done, but combining that with a real view and feel of the performance via use of a helmet cam like this is fantastic, and the audio is also excellent! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I had one when they came out. Wonderful bike. My friend bought the Katana, it's equally wonderful competition.
I had the red GPZ1100. Long time ago in a land far away. (misty eyes) :)
Thanks for the memories with this perfect example.
Best motorbike era, late 70's, early 80's. I still have a CBXz1000 and a Laverda 1000 3C
Those old gpz superbikes were always my fantasy bikes growing up. Would love to have that classic.
I be proud to own that classic and ride it 👍🏼🏍
Lol this brings back memories, I just graduated highschool when this bike came out.... I seen a GPZ 1100 engine and transmission in a Honda Odyssey! How many remember the 1980's Odyssey's?
I remember when this was released and went head to head against the Suzuki GS1100ES. They made the cover of one popular motorcycle magazine and the caption said " When Too Much Is Just Enough" . I've lusted after both bikes ever since. You can still find plenty of those Suzuki's but this gem GPz is a rare find indeed. Must find a way to get this bike......must find a way....
I owned GS 1100's in the 80s , 90s and destroyed every Kaw that challenged me including the ninjas when they came out. This is a beautiful bike from that era though.
I used to have a gpz1100 ..1983 ...Was ok ...This is a nice example .Nice to see you guys showing the real America .Ps that motor sounds tight man.
I bought mine in Holcomb KS. from the dealers mechanic with 500 miles. So fun.
Very nice bike. Kawasaki's answer to the 1982 Suzuki gs1100.
They look and sound AMAZING!!! Great upload, thank you.
I got the ZXA1 -1983 GPz1100 ; runs great with the original digital Fuel Injection.
Just bought , a 1984 GPZ 1100 all original crazy clean ! Also firecracker red. Still stupid fast !
I decided I wanted another one after owning one in the early 90s. I looked and looked and never found one for sale that was running and ridable. Eventually I just settled on a clean ZG1000 concours. I stripped it naked and made custom body panels for the sides, and then used a GPZ 1100 tail. Turned out great
Gotta love old school GPz's.... They're so cool.... 😀
Gorgeous classic
I love the laser tec tires. I have a set on my 82 xj650rj Seca.
I still have my GPZ1100B2 which I purchased new in 1982 still only has 24,000 kms
Still got mine..carb model..Eddie Larson colours
Back in the day This Bike Was Today's Zx14r I love my kz1100
The reason for the ZRX.
This is the missing link between cafe racers and sport bikes.
I want that 305 GPZ you guys have (it was my first bike ever).
I just bought an 85 in almost pristine condition! All original minus the brake reservoir
Great video.
That is absolutely gorgeous and sick at the same time. Stunning looking bike and fast! I could definitely see myself on one of these! Just truly drool worthy! Extremely spooky that you broke your leg 3 times, in 3 different years, on July 11th. My Bday is on the 6th of July. I'll be fifty this year. I wish, more than anything, I was Junior's age again, knowing what I know now. 5ft 10, 170-175 lbs back then, and strong as an Ox, back then, 32 to 33 inch waist, from always lifting weights, and doing some powerlifting. Off like honeymoon pajamas! 😂🤣❤️...Can't wait to eventually visit your town. It's so damn gorgeous, with all of the trees and woods! Definitely a truly badass bike. Looks 100x better than the space age bikes of today. I like motorcycles that look like real motorcycles.
I was sophomore 82-83. Same for you? I graduated 1985.
I had a 1982 GPz1100 that was modified by Klaus Speedworks in 1985 as a street legal drag bike. Damn that bike was scary!
Awesome fantastick beautiful bike, extrodinary.
I had the 81 Gpz 1100. Loved it but the mechanical fuel injection kept giving me problems. In 91 Sold to a guy who was going to replace it with carburetors. Don’t know if it worked out well for him.
This is crazy machine🇧🇷
NICE!!!!
Y’all didn’t show the drive-by!! 😕
Another update, please? 🤠👍🏻
Wow do I want that bike, damm.
Nice
We’re do you get all these great bikes from ?
Nice bike
What is the blinking light in the instrument panel? I’m not to familiar with early 80s motorcycles so I’m just curious lol
Top one is sidestand, middle one is oil pressure, bottom one is low battery. I have 90k miles on my ‘82 GPz1100....
Sweet peice
the cowel eadlight makes the bike
Also the Z1000 was made famous on the TV series CHIPS back in those years.
LOL, CHIPS did not make the z1000 famous.
Now that's what I call a motorbike. Why don't Kawasaki make retro models that look like this? I mean exactly like this, not the re-imagined pale imitations that manufacturers normally churn out. Just update the mechanicals, suspension, brakes, etc. If they did this with a Lawson Z1100R I'd be straight down to my local Kawasaki dealership ready to hand over my money.
I knew a guy had one it was nice he didnt want to sell at the time I ask to buy it but later he ended up with the 84 900 ninja don't know what happen to n the bike.
SHEET !!! LOVELY, LOVELY BIKES, as always. funny story, no bike Kawasaki, for 27 years, they say at Banditaholic meetings, to TALK of Bandit Time, to try and ease Constant ACHE of No longer being a Banditateer, so here go's.

Qué Ace Kawasaki, Oh that takes me back, saying he worked for Kawasaki in 84, had a tuned 750 turbo, got chatting, Shortly after, I go to pick up, ordered food, delivery driver is eyeing up Bandit, got food, talking to him you ever had a bike ??, delivery driver...GPZ750, GPZ1100, then got a 750 turbo. NO WAY, remember when it pulled your arms, So hard.?? He said...Yeah, it tried to throw rider off the back. But a fuel inj. GPZ1100, SHEET,??, Sounds Smashing, Superb. Prof.Bandit650i.B.T.E. out.
