One aspect that is not covered in your critic is the limited production issue, 750 units in 1982 and 1200 units in 1983. During both years there was no suggested retail price, it was a dealer set price. Avergae J model was about 4500$ at the time. In certain areas of North America, price of the R could go for as high as 6500$. In 1983, I was 20 years old and never could afford that amount of money, in 2008 saw one for sale and realized my dream of owning one. Yes, your critics are spot on. Especially in the "Desirability" category. For full info this model please consult <a href="http://www.kz1000r.com" rel="nofollow">www.kz1000r.com</a> My bike is Bike Of The Month May 2009. Enjoy Good review!
