Description

ATTN: Profile pic was taken 2 years ago. before engine/carb work. new front wheel/rotors. and matte black replacement side cover. This bike was unrideable when I got her in the fall of 2008 and began a slow meticulous rebuild at EPE Cycleworks early 2009. I wasn't interested in the Hi-Performance Kz kits EPE is known for. I wanted to keep the bike classic with a stock 1979 look and feel (while adding necessary badass enhancements). Over $10. 00 was built into this bike from 2009-2014 verified by receipts and A CLEAR TITLE.  Less than 3000k miles put on bike since rebuild. She rides reliably with grace and power and needs a new home.  Please don't ask why I'm selling. it has nothing to do with the integrity of the machine. Here's a list of all work done by EPE from 2009 - 2014:-Complete motor swap and top-end rebuid-Wiseco K700cc Piston Kit-New springs and seals-Motor casings glass-bead polished-Electronic Dyna Ignition-New custom wiring harness-Modern 2-prong Fuse Box-Custom CR29 carbs with HighFlow oval pods-Vance Hines 4-1 Exhaust-Comp baffle-New tires-Koni street shocks-Custom Hi-Flow fuel valve-Timkin neck bearings-All new speedo/tach/brake/throttle/clutch cables-Vintage guage cluster with fully working lights installed-O-ring chain-New 19" Excel Takasago polished aluminum front rim-Dual disc custom EBC semi floating rotors-Original Kawasaki bench seat/seatpan in excellent condition. Watch a video of this bike: https://vimeoDOTcom/115837987(ebay does not allow external links. so replace the DOT with a . )Watch this commercial done for EPE featuring this bike:https://vimeoDOTcom/60383892PROS-mechanically sound with no servicing needed other than regular oil changes and tune-ups. -acquire this bike for a fraction of what it cost. -ships with a new Biltwell Gloss Black BONANZA Helmet. Worn less than 10 times since 7/14. CONS- Right side cover is rattle-canned black and missing a "kz650" emblem. - Front forks & headlight casing should be chromed or polished down. - Speedo / tach gauge glass is slightly dirty on the inside of casings. I encourage a first-hand inspection. if possible.  Only valid motorcycle DL's considered for test rides.  Please understand. a lot of love was put into this machine. Thanks for looking.
