My deal fell through on the rest of these bikes; stupid helpful neighbors. :x Any way, what we have here is a basement stored A1. Dirty but not a rustbucket.It does have surface rust.The only thing I cleaned was the front fender and it turned out pretty good.Engine kicks over. Have original ignition key and fork lock key. Gas tank is clean inside.Seat pan is good.When I first got it,the front fender,speedo and headlight and header pipes were missing.She came up with them so I reinstalled them.I'm supposed to be getting a title but you know how it goes once people get their money.500 OBO.Holler if there are any questions. Thanks.

At $500, that's a "smokin" deal Buddy! :shock: Someone needs to jump on this one...

Thanks fellas. Seems it's getting harder and harder to find the old 60's kawasakis.

Is this is the one we discussed a little while ago:- whether it is Samurai or Avenger, as it wears Avenger pipes?

Yes it is.It is a 250 with 250 cylinders,not sure why it has avenger pipes on it though.

Haven't tried to start it.It sounds healthy kicking it over.I 'd say it would run but who knows how well.
