MOTOR SHIFT UP, "KZ1000S1 RACE REPLICA BAR", BLACK, 22.2MM, 805762-06
The Black Chromed Plated "KZ1000S1 RACE REPLICA BAR" by Motor Shift up is a genuine Kawasaki KZ1000S1 racer replica handlebar from their "Dream-timer retro parts range". Offered in a black finish with nylon bar ends fitted. The specifications of the KZ100S1 bars adhere to those of the original Kawasaki racer bars, such as the bar bend mimics the original bar, the knurling in the clamping area is a reproduction of the original design. Additionally, consistent with the models produced in the 1970s, the wall thickness is specified at 2.3mm to ensure strength, and also to maintain the exact reproduction standards.
Originally designed as a race replica bar, however, we find its styling and bend a popular choice for custom builds and riders seeking a high-quality usable custom styled 22.2mm bar that they can trust to be reliable and strong.
With a 22.2mm (7/8") diameter, these bars are also compatible with a wide range of motorcycles, including the Yamaha SR400/500 and Kawasaki W800. Their bend and lower stance provide a classic aesthetic without the complications often associated with some custom bars, all while offering great styling. And of course, they are perfect for your KZ1000S1 restoration.

FAQ:
Q: Do I need longer cables and brake line on my W800?
A: Possibly, typically need to use longer cables and brake line on your W800 as W800 bars are fairly low. But some owners do re-route cables depending on their custom build requirements as these bars are only 70mm high.
Q: Can I use this bar on my W650?
A: The "Super Up Bar" can be used on the W650, but only if you use with the 25.4mm to 22.2mm shims - (sold separately).
Q: Can I use this bar on my bike that has 22.2mm (7/8”) bars?
A: It is possible to use this bar as a universal / general use 22.2mm bar. Consider the predrilled switch holes (usually covered over), clamp width area and consider if you need longer (or shorter) cables or brake line etc. to suit your bike model. So yes, this bar is a popular option due to the attractive bend, Japanese quality, and is often used on a range of bikes new and old Triumphs, SR400/500, W800, W650 with shims, GB350 and TW200 models just to name a few.
