Kawasaki Ninja description

 

1987 Kawasaki Ninja 600R

 

I am the original owner.  I picked it up from Kawasaki of R.I. on April 20, 1987 and I have the original bill of sale to prove it.

 

25278.1 Miles

 

This bike is in very good cosmetic condition.  Note the 'bra' is still on it; very popular during the 80s

 

Mechanically it needs: 

  • It will start but will only run on the choke.
  • The fuel tank needs to be resealed.
  • The front brakes are spongy.
  • It started to overheat, which is why I stopped riding it.

 

I am sure it can be made street worthy again by someone with the time to put into it.

 

It is an antique this year and I am sure will be a great project for anyone who enjoys vintage bikes.  I wish I has the time to put it back on the road myself, but there are too many projects on the table now and not enough room in the garage.

 

More pictures are available upon request.  You ask for it, I will take it and e-mail it to you right from my phone.  Videos too.

For 2012 Honda revamped the CBR1000RR, Yamaha added traction control to the R1, the GSX-R1000 lost a muffler and last year Kawasaki introduced an all-new ZX-10R.
