Front wheel has a 100/90-19 DUNLOP tire, rear wheel is a 140/90-16 DUNLOP tire, New brake pads, front and rear; both master cylinders have been flushed & have new brake fluid ; new 630 o ring chain and front and rear sprockets; new seat cover;  New carburetor cylinder boots. The carbs have been cleaned & rebuilt.Triple tree bearings have been cleaned & fresh greased. Front & rear wheel bearing have all been cleaned & fresh greased. New front wheel lock & keys. New ignition switch & keys. Front forks have new seals & dust covers & New fork oil. Fresh oil and filter. It has a  Kerker  Megaphone Header that came on this bike in 1978.  

Bad things,  No dents, Slight scratch on front right sticker on tank. Paint chips on side covers. Can be seen in pictures. It needs a new battery, After it sits awhile it needs charged to start. Then its fine. So it does need a battery. They only last a few years.


 Everything works, and it starts right up. It idles fine. Runs and sounds great.     This bike is 38-years-old, but you won't be disappointed in this Kaw!  It only needs a new battery. ; it's ready to ride. I still ride it every now and then, so it may have a few more miles on it before it's sold. SOLD AS IS/WHERE IS.
