岡山から太田さんが来てくれました、感謝、The Kawasaki zephyr (ZEPHYR) is the motorcycle which Kawasaki Heavy Industries produces. It was produced as a series car model according to displacement volume, but only ZEPHYRχ is released now in 2008. A background and the fate of the model that were released I push it, and, for racer replica glory years, it is released a style without a nostalgic cowl daringly by the front. This is popular with users in search of a choice except the full cowl and shows explosive sales, and it is it with the central figure of the Ney kid boom. The horsepower setting that was not conscious of self-imposed restraint would cast a rock for the catalogue specifications competition that was overheated too much daringly, and it was it with the turning point that the style of the selection of of the motorcycle of the user changed. As for the hit of this zephyr, it was it with both the withdrawal and the driving force to let the big profit source of the company rebear by the two-wheeled vehicle business of examined Kawasaki Heavy Industries by poor sale in the replica boom. I meant fall wind in English, and I loaded it with a new idea to the industry to blow from Akashi of the Kawasaki Heavy Industries two-wheeled vehicle production foothold factory to and a wish that it seemed to be it, and it was named the zephyr (ZEPHYR). In addition, I have already acquired ZEPHYR as the trademark as the four-wheeled vehicle use which Ford Corporation produces, but because Kawasaki Heavy Industries wants to never name ZEPHYR to this new car, I perform negotiations with Ford, and there is the process that got the right to use of the name in those days. It was common that the motorcycle which two domestic maker 4 companies produced transcribed a car model name to a maker logo, a side cover to a fuel tank, but "KAWASAKI" and the transcribed design were very fresh to "ZEPHYR", a side cover to a fuel tank in those days adversely. I received sockeroo of 400cc, and the 1,100cc model that exceeded 750cc model and it was released and became a long hit car model both afterwards. Steel tube frame, one circle eyes light, non-cowl, four air-cooling series cylinder engines, two リヤサス can stream down an atmosphere of Z-2 which is a model car model with specifications same as 400cc model both. Is strong, and round fuel tank, cam cover, 造型 of the tail remind the 750cc model that is "a 750cc motorcycle" same as Z-2 in particular of Z-2; is done. In addition, I changed it of the cast wheel of normal specifications to a spoke wheel (tube tire specifications) to thicken an atmosphere of Z-1 / Z-2 more, and zephyr 750RS / 1100RS which arranged a solid emblem (but style of handwriting is different from the thing of Z-1 / Z-2) of "KAWASAKI" for フュエルタンク was done 一時期併売 of. ZEPHYR (400cc) was released as ZEPHYRχ( zephyr chi .399cc .53HP) of four valve specifications later to be opposed to the Ney kid motorcycle of other companies, but first 400cc 2 of two valves continued being done 年程度併売 of. In addition, the 750cc model is used as an instruction car of the large-sized motorcycle. In addition, ZEPHYR1100 that the finals edition model that changed a fire ball color and the seat emblem which I became the production end with the end of 2006, and reminded of a first generation model of Z-1 / Z-2 with the 750cc model .1100cc model was sold - 86HP 1,062cc(I make an engine of Voyager XII which I appeared in 1986 an air-cooling and use use, two spark plugs per one cylinder)

Nov 22, 2008 - Nice machine! We never got the 1100 cc Zephyr in the U.S. but we had the 750 cc. I would love to have a modern air cooled bike. The water cooled Suzuki was called a "Water Buffalo" over here in America.
