Still conceptual, but supposedly reflective of Kawasaki's vision and capabilities.

And we wouldn't be interested in them until they're around 40 years old!

   There was a concept bike teaser pic circulating a couple yrs. ago by Mama Kaw of a modern UJM retro bike, similar to a Z1/KZ1K.  Blue livery & 4 pipes.  Don't recall the model designation.  It was at the Tokyo Motor Show.  If Mama Kaw builds it (and if it comes to the U.S.) we will divest ourselves of as much rolling stock as needed to make room for one.

   Honda has teased a concept pic recently of a CB1100 UJM retro bike for 2026.  Looked like it's production-ready.  Not out of the question we could move on one of those if Mama Kaw disappoints again.

Good Ridin'

Jim..You'll Never see these "classics" arrive on the shores of the states, just not enough interest unfortunately. I remember when the CB1000 revised edition came out years ago but it too was never offered in the states.

I am also glad I won't be around when these new whatever they are called become available. I'll be riding my old bikes until I or my bikes die, whichever comes first.

I'm still looking for this one. If I find it and it's for sale it will be my next Kawasaki.
