1981 was the last year they made those. They were one of the fastest production bikes of that time. As was the Kawasaki KZ 1000

My best friend from High School bought one of the 81 models. He was killed on it 3 days later.

I had a 1980 Kawasaki KZ 1000, sold it a few days after I had to be a pallbearer at his funeral.
I yearned for a KZ 1000 as a kid. Lucky I never found one.

It was a fast SOB back then.
Oh yeah!
