Kawasaki Other description

 1978 or 79 KZ1000 LTD....I think, but im not sure.
Frame # kzt00b-516766
Engine # KZT00AE 079198

I bought this bike about a year and a half ago in hopes of building something super cool. Well, I dont have the time or space, so here it is.
I do not have a title for it. Bill of sale only. If this is a problem do not bid.
The parts alone are worth more than the opening bid, but I dont have the heart to part it out. Some one built it and loved it. I was even told by the person I bought it from that it was in a magazine when it was first finished. He also said it easily out ran his modern FJR1300 .Although it may be best used for parts or a great donor motor. When I first bought it I put a battery and fuel to it and it fired and ran. I tried today when I pulled it out of storage and it would not start. .The list of parts is as follows to the best of my knowledge. Again, I bought it with no paperwork and it still has no paperwork.

MTC 1327 Big Bore kit ( which requires case machining )
 "J" Model Head ( no idea of porting)
Cams ( Bike has Web Cams decals but I dont know what is in it)
MRE Lock up clutch
36mm Mikuni Flatslides
Dyna 2000 Ignition
D&D Pipe
 Braced and Gusseted frame
17" Wheels from unknown
Looks like a GS1150 swingarm to me
Floating rotors
4 piston calipers up front
Marzochi Shocks
Dunstall one piece body ( inside liner has failed and will need to be re done)
Tommaselli  clip ons
