Two running motorcycles and the suzuki other than a fading seat, bad tires and a golf ball sized dent in the tank is simply amazing. Hasn't run in five years so I'll have to troubleshoot a few things but she seems great.

Kawas are easy to work on.

Probably posted previously, but Kawasakis are easy to work on, and engine-wise they are tough as nails.

You might still be able to find reasonaly priced parts (cables and such). I find part for my '86 EN450 on ebay all the time, and many EX500 parts (again, cables and such) work with it.

It wouldn't look something like this, would it?

That's pretty cool for $150. I'd love to do something of the like, but am a lousy project completer - can't even get a model car done without getting bored!

Don't think of it as a stop light. Think of it as a chance-to-show-off light.
