MODEL SUMMARY.
Low mileage, low ownership example of a UK supplied 2005 05 registered Kawasaki ZX-10R C2H Gen 1 in Metallic Raw Titanium / Metallic Flat Graystone
This is a really lovely example and very hard to find nowadays with just 3 owners from new, and 12000 miles. Last recorded keeper since 2011

The Gen 1 ZX-10R launched in 2004, and was by far and away Kawasaki’s most focussed, and fastest sports bike, replacing the aging, capable, but much softer ZX-9R. These bikes were, and remain incredibly fast. Very light, and with 181 bhp / 84 lb ft, the model imnmediately propelled itself up to the very top of the Superbike ranks alongside the GSX-R1000 of the day. The technical specification included ‘Ram-Air’ induction technology to allow greater horsepower at wide open throttle openings, fully adjustable front/rear suspension with 43mm USD forks, LCD instruments, Lap timer/Shift light, Slipper clutch, Radially mounted Tokico Gold calipers, Petal discs, Rear hugger and Factory fitted Kawasaki engine immobiliser
This bike is completely original in terms of it’s paintwork and panels, and has mechanical upgrades to two key areas that this model was criticised for. Firstly, it has an Ohlins adjustable steering damper fitted, and it’s well documented that these bikes really do benefit from this. Secondly, it has a Yamaha front caliper conversion with braided lines and Brembo radial master cylinder which completely transforms the braking feel and capability, and again this is an area which these bikes were slightly weak in with their original specification (original parts supplied)
Additionally, it has an Akrapovic Carbon exhaust, Pazzo adjustable levers, Renthal grips, GiPro Gear Indicator, Aluminium paddock stand bobbins, Colour coded seat cowl (with pillion seat), Carbon style wrapped side fairing trims and ever useful Optimate flylead fitted
This particular will appeal to anyone whom places great importance on ownership and mileage provenance, and originality of the overall paintwork/condition. Early ZX-10Rs will seldom be found with the ownership, mileage, and condition/originality of this example, and it clearly sets itself apart from lesser examples
’90s/noughties Japanese superbikes are now at the age where values are increasing, along with their collectability and desirability, This is certainly an example that will appeal to someone looking for long term ownership of one of these bikes as a future investment machine
