HOW MANY KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 ARE LEFT?

There are 38 KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 71 KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 was highest during 2025 Q1 (110). The number taxed topped out in 1998 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 1 (1%) KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 has gained 23. Licensed models have increased by 6 and the SORNed total has increased by 17.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 9 KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 models. Taxed models have grown by 15 and the SORNed total has fallen by 6.

65% of the remaining 109 KAWASAKI Z1000 R2 in the UK are currently off the road.
