Out here in Denver I think a seller could ask anything from $2700 to $4000 for a decently restored and 100% rideable one.

I'm running 26mm carbs on my 1075cc 10.25:1 KZ.StriperKing wrote: The crank is not welded. Yes the kit is in it with 500 miles on it and there is NO doubt that those 26mm carbs are to small with 10.5 comp. and 1135cc needs a way better set up.
It only gets 44mpg to 46 mpg and F'n hauls ass!!
