Kawasaki Other description

1984 Kawasaki KZ550-F2 LTD for sale.

6 speed, shaft driven, 550 cc displacement, inline four cylinder.

This bike was a barn find last spring, non-running and had 16,500 miles on the odometer. Matching dents on either side of the gas tank do not affect functionality, just looks, previous owner didn't remember how they got there. I fixed it up and just hit 20,000 miles on it a few days ago.

Here's everything I did:

Rebuilt the carbs
Balanced the carbs
Chased out the electrical gremlins
New spark plugs
New fuel petcock and fuel hoses
New low-fuel sensor
Newer tires (June 2015 - 3500 miles on them)
Newer battery (June 2015)
Changed fork oil
Changed shaft oil
New rear shocks

Added
Plexifairing windshield
Soft saddlebags
Steel top box with adjustable backrest (I have the original sissy bar as well)
Fork seal boot protectors

Great-running bike, averages 40-45 MPG depending how hard you run it. Has no problem cruising 80-85 mph on the highway, the 6th gear and windshield really helps. Has highway pegs as well to stretch out you legs.

This is a great bike for around the city and to cruise around the metro. This is the bike I learned to ride on. I am 5'11" and I can easily flat-foot this bike with knees bent. Bike weighs around 450 lbs wet. I have always used non-oxygenated gasoline in it. Holds about 3.3 gallons of gas, low fuel comes on after about 2 gallons are used up, around 80 miles or so on the trip meter.

Let me know if you are interested or have questions.

Thanks!
