Bad Kaw is really going to hate me now. I just agreed to buy another 77 650 C-1 :pinch: :pinch: :pinch: the bike sounds pretty nice 14,000 miles, good compression, stock exhaust, original paintwork that is still in good condition. It needs the usual, carb clean, a new battery and some new airbox boots. Looking at the pic though it looks like it will be pretty easy to bring back. I'm looking at another bike that is on ebay now that is located only 50 miles from this one so if it stays cheap enough I may just get both at the same time. I'm not sure how well this pic is going to show up here but it's all I have at the moment.

I saw a nice KZ in Beatrice, NE today at the last second. It was parked by one of the car dealerships and when I came back from lunch it was gone. From my one and only glance, it looked very close to the '77 C1, only it had the newer tank badges.
Andy, I don't think you're going to get over MBD anytime soon!

Tim you're right, you don't want to know. But if it makes you feel better it was $25.00 more than I could have gotten it for.:laugh:
Thanks Rob but storage is fast becoming an issue. I suppose I should just get busy and put together the 10 X 14 shed I bought last year.
That or I'm going to have to take apart the pool table in the LR that currently serves as my parts dept.
Jordan I wouldn't classify this one as being around here exactly I'm looking at another road trip to Chicago to fetch this one. Maybe this time I'll get to eat a Chicago style hot dog, I love those things.
Nate what exactly is MBD again?:laugh:
Edit: Better Pic added

Keep buying 'em Andy...I have pointed you out to my wife. When I start makin' noises about another bike, I just mention you and say "see, but I'm not as bad as this guy" and that oddly seems to calm her a bit:huh: :blink: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
