would the Kawasaki Z1000 cc now known as a vintage model or how old would it have to be ? |

To me, it has to be 30 years old to be 'vintage'. A 25 year old bike is even-handed 'old'. Kawasaki introduced the kz900 motorcycle in 1973. Four years later they introduced the kz1000. The prototypical 1973 Kawasaki Z900/Z1/Z-1 was the first Japanese motorcycle with four cylinders, dual up above cams and 903 cubic centimeters (cc's). It was one of the most powerful motorcycles produced up until that unceasingly a once, and set multiple world records. And even though its quarter mile times and top speeds were grossly overestimated, authentic numbers were impressive enough to earn the bike the nickname “The Regent” (see the modern Z-King, a 2003 z1000 with a zx10r engine). In 1977 a z1000 ridden by Reg Pridmore became the first Japanese bike to win an AMA Superbike native when it took the victory at Pocono Raceway. In 2003 Kawasaki introduced a thoroughly revamped 30 year anniversary edition of the Z1000. It tolerant of a modified motor from the Kawasaki ZX-9R, and was bored out by 2.2 mm resulting in bigger displacement, more low-RPM torque, and only a little power loss of 4bhp from the original ZX9 lump. In 2004, Kawasaki released the Z1000's smaller chum, the Z750. In 2007, Kawasaki re-defined the naked class with an improved version of the preceding model as far as mechanics go, and Kawasaki went wild with this one stylistically. The Z1000 is also known as the "Z," "Zed," and "Z1k." | |

anyone know where i can sell a 1971 kawasaki f7 for kind of a lot? |

Honourable because a bike was built 35 years ago, doesn't make to appear it intrinsically valuable or a collectors item. I would say a bike that old has little or no value, unless it's showroom prerequisite, with ridiculously low mileage. Even then, unless there's a big demand for that year/miniature, you won't get much for it. It's old technology, parts are probably hard to Loosely transpire b Nautical tack by. Any item is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it.
