Contact Chris at 312-878-8711, chris@motoworkschicago.com, or through ebay for any questions. 

We have a lot of time, effort and money into listing this motorcycle on ebay.  Please be respectful of that and be certain that you intend to follow through with the sale.  Your bid is a contract to buy.

We have the listing set up to accept bids only from US and Canadian bidders in an effort to prevent scammers from ruining the auction.  If you are a legitimate bidder outside of the US or Canada and you have a way to have the bike picked up at our location without it being crated, please e-mail Chris at chris@motoworkschicago.com.  Provide him with your ebay ID and confirm that you can arrange international shipping and have the bike picked up uncrated at our location in Chicago, and he will gladly add you to the list that allows you to bid.

This classic Kawi is in pretty nice shape for its age. The fairing is no longer with the bike.  It comes with bar-end mirrors not shown in the pics. The forks feel a little soft but they are still functional.  The tires are in great shape. It runs and rides well with 19,626 miles. It's got a rev-happy engine making it a lot of fun to ride.  Dial it up, hang on tight, and listen to the music coming from the exhaust!

More pictures coming Tuesday detailing the condition of the bike.  Please look at all of them carefully and ask any questions you have before bidding.  You can call Chris at 312-878-8711, e-mail him at chris@motoworkschicago.com, or contact us through ebay.

The bike is located at Motoworks in the city of Chicago.  If you are local and would like to see it in person, please call 312-878-8711 to set up an appointment.

Shipping a motorcycle can be expensive, so be sure to look into it before bidding. The zip code is 60608 to help in figuring shipping.  Our recommendation for a great shipper is Danny at D&K Services.  He can be reached at 973-534-7823.

Winning bidder picks up in Chicago or arranges for/pays for all shipping/crating. We can deliver within 100 miles of Chicago for a fee. $500 deposit via PayPal due within 24 hours of auction close. Remainder via one of the standard payment methods within seven days. No PayPal for remainder unless you contact us first. The bike is to be picked up within three weeks of auction close. $25 per week storage fee after that.  We are a dealer, so we must charge sales tax and process the title and plate if you are an Illinois buyer.  If you are a buyer from one of the states that reciprocates with Illinois on sales tax, we must collect sales tax based on the vehicle rate for your state.  As a dealer, we also have a $110 documentation fee, $161 title/registration fee for Illinois buyers, and $10 ride-away permit fee for out-of-state buyers.

Rossi, Pedrosa Fastest In Second Sepang MotoGP Test

Fri, 28 Feb 2014

Valentino Rossi and Dani Pedrosa topped the time sheets at the conclusion of the second MotoGP test at the Sepang track in Malaysia. Both clocked identical times of 1:59.999 to become the only riders to dip under the two minute mark the entire test. The hot and humid conditions in Sepang meant times wouldn’t be faster than they were in the first test here only a few weeks prior, and indeed, Rossi and Pedrosa’s time is 0.466 second slower than the fastest lap Marc Marquez set at the last test.

Five minutes with Stuart Easton

Fri, 10 Aug 2012

Stuart Easton has been the sole hope for Scotland in BSB since his friend and mentor Steve Hislop left us nearly ten years ago. Rat boy, as he’s known to friends, shone in the 125 and Supersport class and until his horrendous crash at the North West 200 last year was a serious contender for the 2011 BSB title. Many (including himself) thought his career may have been over but he astounded everyone by climbing back on the podium just a few rounds into the 2012 season.
