Description

2003 Kawasaki ZX12R Ninja. This is the motorcycle Kawasaki built to best the Suzuki Hayabusa in top speed and quarter mile times back around 2000. Depending on which article you read, nbsp;they were successful to one degree or another. This bike was built to break 200 mph back then, ut the Europeans got the Motorcycle manufactures to agree to a 186 mph limit just before Kawasaki released this bike to the market. So now you know a little of the history of this model. This one is a 2003 model. I think they brought them into the US until about 2005, o it is not a bike you see every day. They were much more popular in Europe than they were here, o they were made a few more years over there. There is a good after market parts system in England still for these bikes. These bikes are still blazing fast and will keep up with about anything on the road today. This particular one has about 16425 miles on it. I say about because I still ride it when we have a pretty day. It is in really good shape mechanically, tarts, uns, hifts, tops, nd rides as good as it did the day it was new. It has a D&D pipe on it that sounds awesome. It has been lowered one inch, ut I have everything to put it back, nd those parts will go with the bike. I put new Pirelli tires, ront and back on it about a month before it got to cold to ride last winter, nd when I did, also replaced the front and rear brake pads. It has Heli bars on it, o give a more comfortable riding position. It has a custom made backrest, ade from a Corbin backrest and a bracket I bought from England. It is shown in the pictures, ut is easily removed. I have the original tail cowl that covers the passenger seat, nd it will go with the bike also. The bike is 13 years old, o it is not perfect. The fork seals are starting to leak a little bit and will need to be replaced. The bike fell over on its side while parked and cracked the fairing a little bit by the right side mirror. The crack has been filled and fixed, t just needs to be sanded and some touch up paint applied. I have not had time to do that over the winter, ut I will include the color matching touch up paint. When it fell over, t also put a few other small scratches on the fairing and engine cover on that side, ut it is not noticeable unless you look for it. And, nce with two heavier riders, he rear shock bottomed out and the rear tire rubbed a place on the fender eliminator underneath. The touch up paint will fix this along with a little more sanding. So, ther than the fork seals and a little cosmetic touch ups, he bike is in great shape. It is a lot of fun to ride and the power is amazing and addictive. I would not be afraid to ride it anywhere. The guy I bought it from rode it less than 1200 miles in three years, t mostly sat in his garage. But I have rode it, t is a road warrior, ot a garage queen.The reason I am selling it is that actually, am a little short to ride it. Even lowered it is still on the tall side for me. The bike was really meant for taller riders, nd I am only 5'7". It took a lot of soul searching to decide to sell it, t is so much fun to ride and I love it. But I would love to find a bike with a lower seat height that fits me better. I have a clean, lear Cherokee title, hich is basically the same as an Oklahoma title, nd it will transfer over to the new owner with no problems. I have the owners manual too, orgot to mention that earlier. The bike is paid for, nd I do love it, o I am not desperate to sell it. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I have the bike listed locally, o I reserve the right to end the auction early. I will not ship it, lthough I would be willing to help your shipper load it up. I require full payment within 3 days of purchase in cash or with pay pal, nd a $500 deposit within 24 hours of purchase through Pay Pal. If you are local and want to see it, et me know and we can arrange that.
