Very nice! You have two pretty rare triple models there.

Haven't got the crash bars off yet but drove the blue one a bit over 100 miles today. Third time I ride this year. It's a great bike, overall I'm very satisfied with it. Had some concerns about the clutch as it seemed sticky, but it now seems to have loosened itself up as I was able to adjust for more proper wire slack at the handlebar leveler.

I think the bike handles good too, far better than it's reputation suggests.

I did remove the fugly crash bar from the blue bike. Still need to fix the engine though. Would love to learn to rebuild an complete engine myself. That would save me a total of 1600+ km transporting it in my car to the rebuilder and back. Not sure what to do yet. :think:

With the advice on this forum, and mraxl's site, http://kawtriple.com/mraxl/ you can easily build an engine yourself. They are relatively simple and straight forward engines, and a little care and patience will get you a long way. All the information is on the Triples resource site, and plenty of free advice here!
