Is the zg1200 Voyager XII a 4 cylinder bike?
The previous 5 were all 84’s with the 6 cylinder which were a lot of fun. This 2000 I have now is a 4 cylinder, but lacks no power. Recently went to North Carolina and rode the Tail of the Dragon (318 curves in 11 miles), and scraping pegs in almost all the corners was a blast.
Are there any problems with the Kawasaki Voyager XII?
Sure it had problems with the front end wobbling, but that was mostly a problem with fork pressure/tyre pressure and/or rear suspension set up. It was a joy to ride either on the autobahn or in town, alone or two up with all our junk. I’m thinking about buying another, but here in Germany they can be very expensive… Model year 1993
What causes a Kawasaki zg1200 Voyager to shimmy?
If the front of the bike shimmies, your tires are cupped due to low pressure. If you keep the tire pressure slightly higher, tires will not cup as easy and the bike will be very smooth even if you remove your hands from handle bars briefly. You will notice when tires are brand new there is no tank slapping or shimmying.

What are the issues with a Kawasaki zg1200 Voyager XII?
General Comments: Well, the main issues with this particular bike are that the forks tend to shimmy at take off at times, and when sharp bumps (holes, rocks, etc) are hit. Also, try to keep both hands on the handlebars, as it will start to shimmy a little going down the road sometimes, and could get uncontrollable.
How old are the actors in Goin Down the road?
I first saw this movie about 25 years ago and was absolutely struck by it’s authentic feel. I’m about the same age as the 2 main actors, Doug McGrath and Paul Bradley and although I was born in Ontario, I clearly recall the tremendous influx of 18 – 25 year old men from Newfoundland and Nova Scotia during the 60s and 70s.
