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!

Japan Needs Your Help

Thu, 17 Mar 2011

By now, we’ve all seen pictures and video of the devastation in Japan following the March 11 earthquake and the ensuing tsunamis. Japan, of course, has contributed much to motorcycling, with the Big Four of Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha, as well as tire manufacturer Bridgestone, helmet companies Arai and Shoei and many other motorcycle industry stalwarts all coming from the Land of the Rising Sun. Jon Bekefy and Greg Hatton, two motorcycle enthusiasts, industry employees  and above all, humanitarians, have set up a fundraising campaign benefiting the Red Cross for relief efforts in Japan.
