Years1995–1998
The E generation is a completely different liquid-cooled sports tourer with full fairing, roomier ergonomics and a 1,052 cc engine. It is faster and more comfortable over distance, but also substantially heavier.
1,052 cc · 129 hp · 4 cyl.
Years1982–1985
From the B2 onward the GPZ became sharper and stronger; the later ZX version gained a sportier chassis and more pronounced bodywork. This is the fastest air-cooled branch of the family.
1,089 cc · 129 hp · 4 cyl.
Years1981–1981
The first B1 is the original air-cooled fuel-injected superbike, with an angular bikini fairing and 1,089 cc engine. Originality and a correctly functioning early injection system matter more than cosmetic perfection.
1,089 cc · 120 hp · 4 cyl.
The Kawasaki GPZ 1100 name covers two distinctly different chapters. The air-cooled 1981–1985 machines were fuel-injected superbikes and formed a bridge towards the later Ninja generation. In 1995 the name returned on a liquid-cooled sports tourer with a 1,052 cc four-cylinder engine, full fairing, more comfortable ergonomics and engineering related to the ZZR1100.
Model year therefore determines the bike’s character, parts requirements and intended use. Early B and ZX versions are collectible classics that need specialist attention to injection, electrics and originality. The E generation is far better suited to fast travel with a passenger and luggage, but remains heavy at low speed. Both lines are still powerful motorcycles, so tyres, brakes and suspension should have clear evidence of proper maintenance.
On early models, inspect the injection system, fuel pump and tank for rust, leaks and uneven running.
Inspect charging, starter and earth connectors for heat damage, corrosion and previous repairs.
Listen from cold for cam-chain and valve-train noise and ask for documented valve-clearance checks.
On E-generation bikes, check the rear shock, linkage bearings and forks for sagging or leakage.
Inspect fairings, mounting points and the frame around the headstock and engine mounts for crash damage.
