Kawasaki Other description

I wont sugar coat it, this bike is in rough shape. 

It's a 1974 Kawasaki 250 triple. 

What I know is wrong:
  • No title (the guy i got it from just wanted the engine, he never got it)
  • No keys (again, the guy just wanted the engine)
  • all 3 pistons need replaced. They were rusted solid inside the cylinders.
  • all 3 cylinders need to be bored and honed
  • crankshaft needs to be rebuilt (3 or 4 of the bearings have excessive play in them from rusting and being cleaned)
  • bike needs new throttle cable (if you're going to rebuild the engine, you should probably replace all the cables)
  • light surface rust on whole bike
The good:
  • I already stripped the engine and split the crank case for you
  • i already cleaned all the rust off the crank shaft (it was pretty bad)
  • all the parts are still here
The first picture is the bike in the condition i received it. The ladder pictures are the current condition. All the engine parts are bagged up and sorted, currently in a box in my apartment. This isn't a bike that you're just going to toss together and have it running. You should only buy this bike if you're prepared for a project. 

If you want pictures of anything in particular, shoot me a message and I'll get them to you.

I will deliver the bike, for a fee, within 150 miles.

Happy Bidding!

Kawasaki World Debut At AIMExpo

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

Kawasaki has chosen the 2014 American International Motorcycle Expo as the venue to make the world debut of a yet unannounced motorcycle model. The model launch will take place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, this October 16-19.  “AIMExpo demonstrated last year that it can serve as the ideal platform for media and brand activities and Kawasaki will leverage this grand stage to reveal new products, as well as interact closely with dealers and consumers,” explains Kevin Allen, Kawasaki Manager, PR + Brand Experience. “We have some very exciting new product to share and AIMExpo is the perfect place to make these announcements.” Attendees will also witness the North American introduction of all-new vehicles in several categories from Kawasaki. Following the unveilings, all products will then be on full display for all to see inside Kawasaki’s booth (#2165) out on the AIMExpo show floor.  “Kawasaki joins an expanding list of key companies that sees AIMExpo as the perfect means to infuse energy into the powersports business in North America,” says Larry Little, Vice President and General Manager, Marketplace Events Motorcycle Group.

Single-Cylinder Kawasaki Ninja Spotted in Indonesia

Tue, 31 Dec 2013

Based solely on recent history, you’d think the engineers at Kawasaki are strong believers of the “bigger is better” philosphy. You need only look at the Ninja ZX-6R which shook off the shackles of the 600cc supersport segment with a 636cc displacement, then came the Ninja 300 replacing the 250. New spy photos from Indonesia, however suggest there’s still room for smaller engines from Team Green.
