This bike just came out of storage, sitting since 1987! Bought from original owner, been in dry storage close to 30 years He put it away right, I put a new battery in it and it started right up. The bike runs suprisingly well, no smoke and revs pretty clear. The carbs will need service as the #3 one has a small drip on the overflow. The rest of the bike is very original, stock paint etc. The muffler is a replacement one in new condition, new grips and Accel coils. The rest of the bike looks to be stock Kawasaki. The paint has some minor nicks, and the top of the tail is faded. Bike shows normal wear for its age. Has some minor rust and corrosion spots, but really looks nice overall. Stock seat has no rips and kickstart lever is mounted underneath it still. Has tool kit under seat and carb boots look perfect. Tank has minor surface rust inside, should clean up easy. I rode the bike up and down the road, clutch and gears are fine. Front brakes dragged a little after using, and the #3 carb has a small drip. This bike will need to be serviced to be ready for full time road use again(carbs, tires and brake service). It does start the second you hit the button and will ride as is, but the right thing to do is go through it as it has been sitting 30 years! This bike is sold as is, please plan to see it early if you need exact details on every part. Has 15,427 miles on it, and comes with a current NH title/registration from 2016. This paperwork will get you a title in any state that requires one. I will be happy to meet with your shipper and help load the bike, bike can be seen in Winchendon MA before auction ends if needed. |

Jeremy Toye Wins 92nd Running Of Pikes Peak International Hill Climb
Mon, 30 Jun 2014On his first attempt at the Broadmoor Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, road racer Jeremy Toye set a record in the premiere Open Class to win the category aboard a 2015 Kawasaki ZX-10R, celebrating the 30th year of the legendary Ninja brand. Prior to setting foot on the hill, Toye was confident he could get among the class leaders, aiming to beat the outright Pikes Peak motorcycle record, which was set by Carlin Dunne in 2012 with a time of 9:52.819. While that record remains intact, Toye was able to set a time of 9:58.687 to win the Open Class, finishing 6sec ahead of his closest rival, Fabrice Lambert aboard a Ducati.
