Description

I am the 2nd owner of this Kawasaki KD-175This bike is essentially a new motorcycle.   I purchased this bike 15 years ago in February. 1999.    It was purchased locally and was a "40-year old birthday gift" to a gentleman back in 1976 by his family. I have a private collection and know my local Honda dealer very well.   They called me up and told me of this bike and essentially said "you need to have this for your collection . it is like new. and come in and see it". The original owner traded it in at the Honda dealer for a new outboard motor for his fishing boat - at that point. he was in his early 60's.   He used it minimally. and he told the dealer it has maybe five hours on it.   That said. it would have roughly 100 total cumulative miles on it.    Due to the fact it was a gift. was the biggest reason the original owner kept it for as long as he did. The KD-175 is the stripped down version of the KE-175.   The KE has none of the lighting and needed street legal items that appear on the KE model.  This is the enduro model - completely off road. Many fewer of the KD-175's came in because most people wanted the street version. making this bike somewhat scarce. Making this bike much more scarce is it's condition.    It is essentially new.   Never down. never banged up and barely sporting even the smallest scratch. This KD-175 is completely original. even down to its original tires. I estimated I have used this bike about three-or-four times.    We live on 15 acres and it has never left the property.   The bike runs fantastic and needs absolutely nothing.   It was purchased strictly for my motorcycle collection and has been stored indoors. in a museum setting. After 15 years. it is time to sell.   Thanks for looking. As an FYI. I am selling my personal collection of 10 outstanding bikes  -  all in similar condition.  Feel free to browse my other listings. Financial details:  A $500 nonrefundable deposit is due immediately after winning auction via PayPal and after that we can discuss whatever payment works best for you. As with any other seller. I will not turn over the bike until it is paid for in full .  Shipping is up to the buyer. I do have ample space and will be happy to store the bike for a few weeks as needed to accommodate as needed while shipping details are arranged.   United States sales only please.
