Kawasaki Ninja description

Priced for a quick sale. Cash only.I'm the 2nd owner of this bike. It has low mileage (less than 9k) but needs some attention. Most of it's life it was stored in a garage but has been outside for the last few months. When I acquired it I paid a mechanic to clean the carbs and do some other misc. tune-up. It was running strong until the rain hit and it sat for a couple months. Now it's acting finicky and I suspect it's something related to the carbs again. When it was running well it overheated fairly easily in stop-and-go traffic so I bought a new thermostat but I haven't taken the time to install it. The rear brakes need to be serviced (sticking) as well but all they should need is pads and a good cleaning/greasing. New pads are included in the sale (but not the installation).The plastic is in attractive condition for the age of the bike. 1 exception is a small area on the right side below the gas tank where I got a little careless with the heat gun while removing decals which left some wrinkling in the plastic. Al of the decals have been removed except for the ones on the tank which are clearcoated over. The bike has a sleek blacked out look and people that aren't familiar with the model are generally curious about it.The bike is pretty much stock except for the vance and hines pipe. I think my friend (the original owner) still has the stock pipe but it's in Maine so I wouldn't be able to get my hands on it for a month or two.Update: My friend knocked the bike over backing out of the driveway with his truck. No damage would have be incurred BUT it happened to fall on a stack of plank siding which took a small chunk out of the upper part of the left fairing (near the left hand grip). Because of this I am lowering the price. The damaged fairing in no way effects the handling and operation of the bike.If you are mechanically inclined or have a mefhanic friend that works on your machines at a reduced rate, this is an amazing bik for the money. Great winter project that will result in some wonderful spring/summer riding!I will consider trades for quality power tools (thickness planer, tablesaw, sliding compound miter saw, etc), a propane refrigerator, a small working tractor, portable sawmill and possibly other things.
