What was the name of the 1983 Kawasaki GPZ1100?
Known as the ZX1100A1 model, the 1983 model featured a larger fairing (with a lower fairing section as an option to give a full race fairing), different instrumentation and a warning panel mounted on the redesigned petrol tank.
What was the most powerful GPZ in 1981?
The B1’s 108bhp at 8500rpm was enough to make the new GPz1100 the most powerful four of 1981, beating the GSX’s 100. Mission accomplished? Yes, but only briefly. Imperfections and intense competition meant that the GPz’s evolution had to continue.

When did the Kawasaki gpz750h1 come out?
The respect they garnered from motorcyclists was total. In simple terms, that original air-cooled GPz family lived through two generations: the first, twin-shock GPz550H1 and GPz1100B1 from 1981, joined by the GPz750R1 in 1982. Then the second generation, restyled, ‘Uni-trak’ monoshock versions of all three from 1983 through to ’85.
