The other is a recent purchase,its a 79 kz650 SR complete bike with title $150 the owner hit a fire hydrant off the lot and bent the crank.... aside from that the bike was in pretty great shape.

it is a 79 frame, 78 front end, both 78 wheels and brakes, 78 body work and a 80' 750-4 motor with gpz 750 cams and a kerker and...
