Should I buy this???????

I found a 1977 KZ1000 for sale that I can get for $500. I am still in the process of building mine. Should I pull the trigger on this one. It has out of state tags and has not been titled in my state but not a big issue. They say it runs but needs carbs adjusted. Looks like original paint and odometer reads just over 22K. What do you guys think?

Well I can't get to go see it until tomorrow and the owner told me some other guy is going to look at it now. I' sure it'll be gone. :S

Yes

Is that the special US only black paint? Or was that only the '78 A2A? Can't remember.

The "another guy is super interested" ploy is the second oldest trick in the book...
