Kawasaki Ninja description

Here is a nice running Ninja. Bought it from a co-worker and the bike is simply not my style.
I prefer an upright ride. I'm used to FJR, Concours etc.

Prior owner rebuilt the carb and intake plus freshened the tank. Ready to ride(what of the year is left). Has minor issues, however running is not one of those problems.

Issue 1:
Has an oil leak if left to sit. Won't leak if ran every day. I rode it to work and it never dripped when used. Let it sit a week...it drips.

Issue 2:
Front forks have been sealed. Some see that as an improvement...you may not. The forks do not adjust anymore.

Issue 3:
Needs a gas cap. I have one, with a fresh seal. Never got around to installing it.

Issue 4:
Carbs are not completely set. The set screws(which happens) are not functional. They are set about 95%. Want better...completely rebuild them.

Issue 5:
Various pieces are missing screws. Right(as sitting on it) turn signal only has 1 screw holding it on. The windshield(which I do have) has no bolts. Other various screws/bolts missing.

Issue 6:
Battery likely dead. Will attempt to charge. Otherwise we can jump the bike(I have a jump box).

Issue 7:
I don't trust the tires. I'm anal about tires. They have heat cracks. I replace tires if they have cracks.

Mileage is actually unknown, I guessed the 10,000. Have a feeling the guage cluster is not original.

I will NOT ship this bike. I will meet you within a reasonable distance(I have a truck to carry it...if I deliver, that is EXTRA).

More pictures, ask and I'll text them.

Asking a deposit. If you are local, no deposit(just ask me to change the setting).

BSB 2012; Mystic Mac investigates

Tue, 03 Jan 2012

In my opinion, the smartest move in the BSB off season has to be Michael Laverty moving from Swan Yamaha to HM Plant Honda. With a ban on electronics for 2012, and in particular traction control, WFR's Graham Gowland has already proved to Laverty how competitive an EVO spec Fireblade can be - so I’m tipping both these riders to be bang on the money at the Brands Hatch season opener in April. Unlike BMW, Kawasaki and Yamaha, Honda have deliberately developed their road-going Superbike without electronics to give a user friendly feel with good mechanical traction, so it’ll be interesting to see how the opposition copes with their high-tech trickery stripped off.

The TT800 From Deus Ex Machina

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Deus Ex Machina, the surf/moto shop known for creating throwback, one-of-a-kind motorcycles, has released its latest work of art, the TT800. Paying tribute to the highly successful Triumph factory TT machines from the mid-1960s, Deus’ expert builder, Michael Woolaway, created the TT800 for a customer requesting a new, old Triumph. It sources a Kawasaki W650 bored out to 800cc with CR carbs, a custom TT inspired exhaust, custom chromoly racing frame, re-valved Öhlins forks, and a custom gusseted swing arm for more stability. A Beringer six-piston caliper front brake provides stopping power.

Kawasaki Donates Motorcycle In Support Of Ocean Conservation

Thu, 14 Aug 2014

Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. announced recently that it will donate a Ninja 650 sportbike for auction at the Oceana SeaChange Summer Party, attended by some of the largest supporters of Ocean Conservation in Hollywood including Ted Danson, Sheryl Crow and this year’s special guest, Leonardo DiCaprio. Proceeds from the auction of the Ninja 650 will go to Oceana’s mission of ocean conservation, a shared goal by Kawasaki who’s global mission is “working as one for the good of the planet.”  Some of Oceana’s victories include protecting Sperm Whales from California Fisheries, upholding Shark fin bans in the United States and many other policy victories for marine life and habitats in more than 150 countries.
