I have owned this bike for close to 15 years. Besides adding parts, pgrading parts and finding authentic original parts I have not done any restoration on this bike. I have always thought the KJ to be one of the most beautiful, idable and reliable of early motorcycles. Sadly, understand that I have too many irons in the fire. This great motorcycle needs to find a new home with someone who will get it back on the road.This motorcycle has great bones. The frame and front end look to be very straight and solid. Straight handlebars. Good tanks. Original dash with correct gauges (very hard to find the ammeter and oil pressure gauge). The light switch is a reproduction. Restored horn and bracket, ew headlight and brackets, ice original tail light with clear and red glass. Rear stand has a little wear on the corners, ave the fender clip to hold the stand up. Very nice reproduction fenders- look how nice the they fit the bike, ery nice fenders. Great shift lever with original knob- another hard to find item. Nice original footboards with the brackets, ne board has the corner worn off from hard cornering. Looks very cool. Original matts. Foot clutch and brake pedals are nice. Most of the control rods andclevices are here. The motor is very complete. Upper and lower cases are nice. Look at photos for details. Crank shaft, am shaft, earing caps, lywheel, lutch, ransmission internals,timing cover and gears, il pump are all there and in good condition. Cam followers and housings, ockers, ocker pinions, ntake (one mounting hole broke off, eeds cast iron repair to fix), he hard to get aluminum rocker cover is there. Correct magneto that has been rebuilt. I have 8 cylinders that go with this bike, are rebuilt. Easily get 2 more nice cylinders from theother 6. Some have chipped fins, rist pin damage,etc. Missing motor parts are carburetor, ush rods and generator. Other missing parts: seat, iring, hain, isc. Includes 19" rims with complete hubs, rakes,sprockets, tc. Rear rim is very nice, ront rim has rust damage. I have a second 19" rim that is tweeked, ice steel but a challenge to straighten. I have new wheel bearing that go with the wheels.I can exchange these for standard 18" rims that are both nice (0nly one set included).
