I have to wonder if the kawasaki Gods like me a little.
This kz1000 popped up on CL last Monday and I'm pretty sure i was the first to see the listing. I called, negotiated a vary nice cheap price and picked up the bike today. As you can see in the CL photos bike was for sale in a garage sale over the summer with NO sale and he decided to put it on CL
One owner with all the original paper work, 15k miles , OEM exhaust is toast but the rest looks pretty darn good

Bike been sitting since 1989 !!!!!

Well from what I see that exhaust doesnt look too bad. How do you get theu security with that horseshoe up your butt tho?

You going to toss a 4 into 1 on her or track down a stock style exhaust

Yup, I'm a bit on the jealous side. Nice job bro

How big of an engine would you need to run 55mm carbs?
