Looks like a good deal, complete engine comes with a set of carbs!

Edit: and a rare non smog valve cover!!!

Looks like you get a handlebar grip too!

Alberta is the Canadian province next to mine.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Lethbridge is still a long way from where I live...probably over 1,000 km.  Would be a nice ride through the Rockies though!  We are planning to head in that general direction in about a month, but in our RV...heading down to New Brunswick.

I forgot how large your provinces are compared to the states here in the northeast US.  Years ago we traveled thru Glacier National Park, Lake Louise, and on to Vancouver. Western Canada is a beautiful area.

The whole of the UK isn't that big from one end to the other

That looks like a KZ900 engine Steve.  Edited to add that it's a KZ1000 engine, but a 1015 version, not the J version.  Interesting oil plug!!

It's been 34 to 38c (93f to 100.5f) the past week, so a bit hot to ride to! My son forwarded this ad to me on Saturday and offered to go pick it up for me as he's in Vulcan right now, only an hour from Lethbridge. I turned him down as our garage is overflowing and I don't think a lot of parts would be interchangeable with my A1.
Back in the saddle and loving it! KZ1000A1
