Kawasaki Other description

Bike was purchased 2 1/2 years ago from 2nd owner. Owner was a woman in her early 70's who rode this bike in the 70's and 80's. It had a Vetter fairing and Krauser bags/luggage rack. Mufflers were slip on to accomadate the Krauser bags. The seat was dished out to accept her size. Her husband rode a Concorse during that time.  Parts replaced were pipes (Doremi 4 into 4), spokes, all wheel bearings, new bronze swing arm bushings, seat, tires, all engine gaskets and seals, all brake lines + rebuild kits for the master cyl & caliper, new clutch cable, new front pads, rear drum brakes were cleaned and reinstalled, chain & sprokets(530 chain / sprockets conversion) , new electronic regulator/rectifier, new chain guard, fork seals (disassembled,cleaned-new fork oil), new gas cap gasket. Carbs were cleaned with ultrasonic cleaner, valves were checked / adjusted, cam chain was adjusted. Engine was not disassembled other than to replace gaskets and to polish covers. The problamatic alternator oil seal was replaced with a new pliable seal and should not give you problems. Original petcock could not be salvaged so quality Pingel installed. All other parts are original to the bike. I do not have a tool kit for this bike. Bike does have a chain oil tank / dipstick but the pump is missing. Original paint is in extremly good condition other than one small rock chip on left side of tank and a rub mark on the tail piece from the luggage rack. Gages have not been rebuilt and show the exact mileage. I have a clear Minnesota title but bike is located in Idaho. The bike is ridden often and runs very well. As you can see from the pictures it has a electronic ignition (mech advance) which was installed by the 2nd owner. This has to be one of the original aftermarket ignitions offered and still runs perfect. The neck bearings are still the original ball type and were cleaned inspected and reinstalled.I normally would replace these with the tapered bearings but decided to leave as much original parts as I could.  All electrics were checked and as mentioned above I replaced the regulator and rectifier and also wired in a relay which feeds the ignition circuit directly vs through the kill switch. Bike will be shipped with older AGM battery.

AMA Sportbike: 2012 Daytona 200 Results

Tue, 20 Mar 2012

The 2012 Daytona 200 delivered another fairy-tale finish with underdog privateer Joey Pascarella and the Project 1 Atlanta team fending off a pack of three other racers to win by a slim 0.048 second margin. Competing in just his first Daytona 200, 19-year-old Pascarella from Victorville, Calif., held the lead for 41 out of 57 laps to finish first ahead of a last year’s winner Jason DiSalvo while Cameron Beaubier squeezed by 2010 Daytona Sportbike Champion Martin Cardenas in a photo-finish to take third. For the Project 1 Atlanta team, the win marked a dramatic turnaround from a let down in 2011.

ABS Option Coming for 2014 Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Classic, Nomad and Vaquero

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

Anti-lock brake technology has become fairly commonplace for motorcycles now, and it sometimes comes as a bit of a surprise when a major manufacturer does not offer ABS as an option on certain models. The European Parliament making ABS mandatory by 2016 has helped push things along, as manufacturers work to equip their models with the technology ahead of the deadline, not just for the European market but also for other markets including the U.S. New documents released by the California Air Resources Board reveal Kawasaki will offer an ABS version for its 2014 Vulcan 1700 cruisers and tourers for American consumers.
