Description

Very Cool, intage 1979 Kawasaki KZ650
Clean Title, o signs of any major work or accident. Does not leak. Always starts within a few kicks (electric starts when engine is warm). Everything works, urrently licensed in California. Plenty of tread on tires (about 300 miles on them).
However, ecently ran on low oil. Engine started ticking, o I went back home. Drained the oil, nd only half the reservoir was full. I changed the oil around 200 miles previously. It was burning oil quicker than expected during riding. I changed the oil and ticking went away. There is damage to the engine, ut hard to tell how severe without opening up the engine. It still starts and runs like before. Only difference I can feel is the slight ticking when 'aggressively' accelerating. With conservative riding, cannot tell the different. Though I still wanted to add this disclaimer.
The engine seems to run okay after running on low oil, iring is in good condition, ll electrical and switches work, isc brakes work great, eat is in perfect condition, lectric start plus kick start, lassic style. The only after market part is the Vince & Hines chrome 4-into-1 exhaust system ($500).
I made a YouTube video to show a walk-around of the bike and also a start-up. The video was taken on 6/10/16. eBay doesn't allow me to include links in the description, ut if you search in YouTube for "1979 Kawasaki KZ650 - For Sale - Blake" it should come up.
Thanks for looking, nd happy bidding!Blake
