About the Kawasaki ZX1000A

Carburetor kits, engine gaskets and suspension seals for restoring the A-model Ninja 1000R.

Kawasaki Motorcycle Logo

The 1986 ZX1000-A1 appears in Kawasaki’s parts archive as the Ninja 1000R. Retain the A designation when searching for service parts: the later ZX1000B is a separate model with different carburetor and fork-seal products.

Choose a ZX1000A carburetor kit or engine gasket set

The carburetor kit, fork seals and clutch slave-cylinder kit below fit ZX1000A 1986–1987. The engine gasket set has a separate 1986–1988 application. For carburetor work, compare the carburetor markings and supplied service pieces. For engine resealing, compare the included gaskets with the joints you plan to open; the gasket set’s extra year does not extend the other parts’ fitment.
