Kawasaki Other description

 1978 or 79 KZ1000 LTD....I think, but im not sure.
Frame # kzt00b-516766
Engine # KZT00AE 079198

I bought this bike about a year and a half ago in hopes of building something super cool. Well, I dont have the time or space, so here it is.
I do not have a title for it. Bill of sale only. If this is a problem do not bid.
The parts alone are worth more than the opening bid, but I dont have the heart to part it out. Some one built it and loved it. I was even told by the person I bought it from that it was in a magazine when it was first finished. He also said it easily out ran his modern FJR1300 .Although it may be best used for parts or a great donor motor. When I first bought it I put a battery and fuel to it and it fired and ran. I tried today when I pulled it out of storage and it would not start. .The list of parts is as follows to the best of my knowledge. Again, I bought it with no paperwork and it still has no paperwork.

MTC 1327 Big Bore kit ( which requires case machining )
 "J" Model Head ( no idea of porting)
Cams ( Bike has Web Cams decals but I dont know what is in it)
MRE Lock up clutch
36mm Mikuni Flatslides
Dyna 2000 Ignition
D&D Pipe
 Braced and Gusseted frame
17" Wheels from unknown
Looks like a GS1150 swingarm to me
Floating rotors
4 piston calipers up front
Marzochi Shocks
Dunstall one piece body ( inside liner has failed and will need to be re done)
Tommaselli  clip ons

Mon, 27 Aug 2012

In a very untraditional move, Kawasaki is readying to assail New York’s Times Square on September 13, with 2013 model Ninjas. A day-long, two-block party on Broadway, from West 45th to West 47th Streets, will celebrate the global debut of the new Ninjas with music, giveaways and celebrity guests. For those who cannot make it to the Big Apple, Kawasaki will be live streaming the “Ninja Times Square Takeover” on the Kawasaki.com website from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
