Kawasaki KZ250 description

Up for sale is a 1981 Kawasaki KZ250 rare collectible motorcycle in good condition with only 7600 miles. This bike is an oldie, but a goodie. I took it for a spin after getting it running, and it shifts well, and accelerates as expected. The more I work on it the more I just want to keep it for myself. It has room on the seat and foot pegs for the passenger.

Parts recently replaced or restored to working order:

Newly upholstered seat
New accelerator cable
New front brake handle
New spark plug
New blinker flasher module
Repainted gas tank
Restored blinker and horn switches to working order
Adjusted rear brake to have less play
Engine idle adjusted

I am not a motorcycle specialist (so don't expect too much), but I will try to provide you with an honest description. Please refer to the condition description below, and also look at the pictures

Condition Description

Typical wear as would be found on a bike from 1981. Probably sat in sun for some years. Front tire has severe radial cracks, will eventually need to be replaced. Rear tire has a couple of small cracks. There is a whining noise in the speedometer. Gas tank has some light rust. Frame has light rust in places, but is sound. Hardware to attach front brake cable to front brake is missing, but temporarily connected. Engine runs well. Transmission shifts well. Front suspension seems to be soft. Keyed seat lock does not seem to work. Helmet locks do work. General light pitting of chrome. All lights function and instruments function, except a switch that might be missing on the right handlebar. I don't know what it is supposed to control....maybe the air conditioner? :0)

If you have any questions, please ask. I would be more than happy to answer your questions about this bike.

What you get in this auction..... 1 neato-awesome collectible motorcycle with a clear title, and the potential for lots of enjoyment!

I cannot ship it, so you'll have to either arrange your own shipping, or come and get it yourself.

Scorpion silencer for Z800e

Sun, 22 Sep 2013

PERFORMANCE exhaust manufacturer Scorpion has launched a silencer for Kawasaki's Z800e which it says adds 4.9bhp while shaving 5.4kg off weight. The Z800e is Kawasaki's A2-friendly version of the Z800, with claimed power reduced from 111 to 94bhp. A2 licence holders limited to 47bhp can ride a machine which has been restricted but it must not have made more that 94bhp to begin with, making the Z800e eligible.
