The early Kawasaki KZ-1000P-2 motorcycles are a rare and great collectors item.  As time went on Kawasaki continued to refine their lineup of police motors, if you want a daily rider and want the cachet of having a police motor to call your own-this is a way to go.  I would recommend that you choose the more refined KZ-1000P series P1, P18 or P22) built after 1982.  But if you want a motorcycle with a load of personality and a friendly pet like demeanor the early ones are the way to go.
