OVERVIEW

This 1982 Kawasaki GPz550 remained with its previous owner for approximately 30 years before being acquired by the selling dealer in 2024. A landmark sport motorcycle of its era, the GPz550 combined lightweight agility with strong four-cylinder performance — widely regarded as one of the best-balanced middleweight bikes of the early 1980s.

Finished in Firecracker Red with black and silver graphics, this example has been mechanically refreshed and is offered in excellent running condition. Power is delivered by an air-cooled 553cc DOHC inline-four paired with a six-speed transmission and electronic ignition, sending power through a black-finished four-into-two exhaust system.”
