Someone I know has just discovered some Kwak engines in a barn, can anyone identify them.
KZ110
ZXT00
There is also possibly a z1300 frame as well, if anyone is interested I will try and get his contact details
Cheers Rob

Why are these things ALWAYS found in a barn ??

It's never a hut, shed, lock up, garage, van, warehouse, workshop, loft, attic, cellar, conservatory, porch, bedroom, house etc etc etc etc

You should find that the first one is actually KZT10 and will be an air cooled 1089cc engine from a Z1100 or GPz1100

The second is a water cooled 997cc engine from a ZX1000A [GPZ100RX] or a ZX1000B [ZX-10] or possibly a GTR1000 if it is shaft drive.

Cheers Doebag, I might have the 1100 engine, if it is cheap.

Its an amazing thing, I stored my coupe for 4 years on a farm (family friend so I got it for nowt) whats amazing is what he was storing in his many barns, the thing that broke my heart is a Ferrari 308 gtb driven in and left no cover in an old leaky barn (cheapest paid option), car covered in moss ( I have made an offer to the owner, fingers crossed).
in the sealed and heated barn there are various H**** sport bikes a brand new 7 series BMW and traction engines, oh and my sons quad bikes :D
