Japanese Custom Culture

Here is an original series "JCC" stands for "Japan Custom culture" written by Webike Japan. There is no doubt that Japan has one of the best and unique custom parts and its culture in the motorcycle industry, but the language barrier has led to the closure of JDM motorcycle culture to the outside of Japan. Through this JCC contents, we present you one of a kind custom and mods bikes by professional craftmen and enthusiasts who just can't stop loving motorcycle.

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "KAWASAKI Z1000" custom by Webike community user "sato". The Kawasaki Z1000 was introduced in 2003 with streetfighter styling. Its black and gray coloring and "Sugomi" concept design give it a distinctive character. The exhaust was changed to a sport slip-on exhaust by MAVERICK. The titanium joint pipe combined with a silencer made of carbon contributes to the weight reduction of this bike.The ZETA brake lever was installed in place of the stock one. This lever offers outstanding operability due to its fine position adjustment. This brake lever offers outstanding operability due to its fine position adjustment. In addition, the BABYFACE rearsets are not only slick and simple to use, but also suitable for a variety of riding styles, from touring to urban riding. Other features include an ETCHING FACTORY radiator guard that maintains cooling efficiency while providing high protection, and a YOSHIMURA high-performance air filter. The Z1000 has both impressive styling and performance. While the original performance was already sufficient, the customization has raised it to 120% of what it was before.
