not that bad for 400 bucks, throw a starter in it and clean the carbs and you would have a pretty cool bike

Most likely a 650 starter will fit and they can be found everywhere (except Bad Kaw's place :whistle: )

My brother has to be the one that wants it. Way too many bikes for sale all the time in the bay area. Just check out sfbay.craigslist.org/mcy/
So many people commute here for parking reasons, and there's always some motorcycles on craigslist for sale I'd love to buy for myself.

Look, This GPz1100 on ebay has the same Yoshimura side cover as I have(No. Mine's not for sale!!!).

Didn't know that. I'm sure Mac has been purchased and run by someone else since then.

I do have an Moriwaki Exhaust, that came on my parts bike, I plan on cleaning up and installing it(NO! It's not for sale either!!! :P ) I'm sure I'll only use it for track days, as the opening is larger that the un-capped Supertrapp I currently run now.
