Kawasaki Other description

I wont sugar coat it, this bike is in rough shape. 

It's a 1974 Kawasaki 250 triple. 

What I know is wrong:
  • No title (the guy i got it from just wanted the engine, he never got it)
  • No keys (again, the guy just wanted the engine)
  • all 3 pistons need replaced. They were rusted solid inside the cylinders.
  • all 3 cylinders need to be bored and honed
  • crankshaft needs to be rebuilt (3 or 4 of the bearings have excessive play in them from rusting and being cleaned)
  • bike needs new throttle cable (if you're going to rebuild the engine, you should probably replace all the cables)
  • light surface rust on whole bike
The good:
  • I already stripped the engine and split the crank case for you
  • i already cleaned all the rust off the crank shaft (it was pretty bad)
  • all the parts are still here
The first picture is the bike in the condition i received it. The ladder pictures are the current condition. All the engine parts are bagged up and sorted, currently in a box in my apartment. This isn't a bike that you're just going to toss together and have it running. You should only buy this bike if you're prepared for a project. 

If you want pictures of anything in particular, shoot me a message and I'll get them to you.

I will deliver the bike, for a fee, within 150 miles.

Happy Bidding!

Motorcycle Drifting, Part 2.

Fri, 13 Jan 2012

Today’s Friday Fun Video comes courtesy of the marketing department at Icon Motorsports. Following the success of their first motorcycle drift video, featuring Nick Brocha on a stretched Kawasaki ZX-10R scorching rubber with Jim Guthrie on a Corvette-powered Mazda RX7, the guys set out to one-up themselves. With this video, I think it’s safe to say “Mission Accomplished.” This time around, Brocha is joined by Ernie Vigil and they’re riding modified Triumph Speed Triples.

2013 AMA Supercross Anaheim 2 Race Report

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Ryan Villopoto claimed his first win of the 2013 AMA Supercross season and his first since the knee injury at last year’s Seattle round that kept him out of the 2012 AMA Motocross championship. The victory in front of 37,789 fans at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif., made up for his disappointing 16th place finish two weeks earlier at the same site. His Monster Energy Kawasaki teammate Jake Weimer held the early advantage in the main event, taking the holeshot ahead of the Honda Muscle Milk duo of Justin Barcia and Trey Canard.
