Kawasaki Other description
Selling my 1980 Kawasaki KZ650 which was converted into a cafe racer. I am selling because purchased the bike 2 years ago and it has been sitting in the corner of my garage for over a year not being used. It was converted before I purchased, but needed cosmetic work. Have clean NJ title in hand, The Odometer # is the add is not correct, it is not known, had to enter a # for ebay to allow listing
This is what I did:
Removed all the badging from the tank and side covers, painted the tank, front fender and side covers
Replaced the turn signals
Cleaned up the wiring
Painted the front tripple tree, painted the front brake reservoir and tachometer holder
Painted the exhaust as well
The good:
Clean lines
Nice paint
New tires
Dropped bars
Handlebar end mirrors
Airbox converted to K&N filters (told that jetting was done)
New seat with brake light embedded
Manual chain tightener
Kick stand and centerstand
Kerker 4 to 1 exhaust
New petcock (gravity type)
Newer chain
Brakes good
The bad:
Needs new battery (may have one by time it is sold, just need time to pick one up)
Use to start but takes a while, once running will start first/second time, carberators need to be cleaned and balanced. Should start just have to get a chance to try once I get new battery
Gas tank should be cleaned and coated
The previous owner installed the tachometer (don't know why), I purchased a speedo, but never got around to changing it out, speedo comes with the bike
Some scraping on the turn signal control (was planning to replace, just didn't get around to it)
Some scrapping on the lower part of engine
The bike is fun to ride, I just don't have time that is why I am selling, this bike should not sit, it deserves to be ridden.
The bike is being sold AS-IS, no warranty given or implied, it will also be listed locally and if sold I will be ending this auction
$250 non-refundable deposit due withing 24 hours of end of auction, rest paid in CASH when bike is picked up, will not release bike until fully paid!!!

AMA Superbike: 2012 Daytona Results
Tue, 20 Mar 2012Josh Hayes and Blake Young picked things up where they left off by trading wins at the 2012 season-opening AMA Superbike round at Daytona International Speedway. Reigning champion Hayes of Monster Energy Graves Yamaha took the first race handily, leading almost right from the start of the 15-lap race for the win. Yoshimura Suzuki’s Young, who finished second to Hayes in the 2011 AMA Superbike Championship, responded by taking the second race, but only by a slim 0.002-second margin.
Who To Watch In AMA Pro SuperSport
Thu, 13 Mar 2014America’s road racing champions of tomorrow are racing in AMA Pro SuperSport today, and their season kicks off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway. With events on both Friday and Saturday, there are plenty of chances for glory for the 48 competitors entered. AMA Pro SuperSport is the most unpredictable class and the racing gives a chance for riders in the large fields to step up and prove they have what it takes. A great example is reigning AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike Champion and current SuperBike pilot Cameron Beaubier, who cut his teeth in his two-victory, two-pole season in 2010.
