Would you buy it! was created by peter1958
Ran into a guy at the biker breakfast with a 81 kz1300 has 58635 miles on it. 800.00 takes it home. It will need a battery and that`s it. I have not seen the bike in person but do have a picture.
What do you think?

Are you kidding me? If it looks that good, take it home! That's like asking us if you should take Catherine Zeta Jones home. :laugh:

If it's really the bike in that picture for $800 and it runs I'm saying it's too good to be true. I would sure have a look. Those bikes are known to have cam tensioner failures that kill the engine. I don't think that new replacement parts are available either. Just sayin do your homework before you waste your money.
With that said the bike in the picture looks great. Also those inline 6 bikes like the KZ1300 and CBX make the most incredible sound. I would have one just for that.

I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

In Canada a bike in that condition is selling for $4000.00 more or less.

For that price, you HAVE to buy it. The KZ gods are looking down at you wondering why you haven't taken their Gift. :laugh:
