Note: The bike will need ‘Running-In’, then its oil & filter changing.
Tons of receipts, lots of money spent.
Comes with 3 Original Kawasaki Keys, 2 Ignition, 1 Seat, as it kept its original locks. This has been an adventure. I built a dream bike, but due to having 2 back discs out of alignment, I'm selling 4 Bikes, including this one. So much time and the efforts of many have gone into creating this beautiful bike, and the money spent is ridiculous.
Really, everything is explained above in the main description. If you want something that is restored from the ground up instead of not knowing what condition those old bikes are really in, this could be for you. Almost everything is rebuilt, refitted, and new service parts are everywhere. £1000 rare vintage Lester wheels, £1000 Carbs, £800 Number plate, rare racing Bimota-kawasaki swingarm, it has been built with love.
