KZ1000MKII
Hi all, just a toe in the water to gauge interest but I'm having a de-clutter and in all probability I've concluded I'm not going to get round to doing anything with this bike as I've got 4 others stashed in storage all over the place. If you do a search on my user name and you should find the initial thread detailing the bike.
Engine was good, no smoke or rattles at all and apart from the colour scheme it was a good non standard bike. It's got a braced alloy swingarm, raask rearsets, fzr forks (reworked by UK suspension) and fzr wheels, R1 bluespot callipers and koni dialarides. The frame and wheels are bright yellow, I started painting one side of the frame to make it easier to live with and decided it needed to be re-done properly with a full strip and rebuild so that's pretty much how it's stayed. The exhaust on my original thread has gone but it will come with used kerker downpipes and a NOS suppertrap megaphone silencer. The only other thing that's changed is that the igniter is off the bike, the bloke I bought it off originally called me up asking if I could bring it over as his brother had bought a Z and it wouldn't run, so I removed it, took it over only to find his was a z650 and totally different!!
If you can look past the colours it's actually a really good bike, it will come with boxes of spares, 2 sets of bodywork, 2 good seats, a photocopy of the gen Kawasaki manual. It may be a week or so before I can post a recent pic and I will also need to find the paperwork. The price is £1600 firm, probably go for a bit more on eBay but I can't be doing with the idiots it would attract. The bike is in south Liverpool and will obviously need taking away in a van.
Cheers,
Mark

Email sent, sorry for those looking at the original thread but the pictures are not there anymore for some reason! Just some pictures of a kitten however I do still have them so if you pm me I'll send them to you by email but if you really want a kitten send me £1600 and I'll bung one in the post

Just so that potential buyers are aware I would rather they collect in person just so they can see what they are buying. I'm just being upfront and honest, I've nothing to hide with this bike so I'd hate for it to land at the buyers house and for them not to be happy with it.

Re: KZ1000MKII
Well the bike was due to be collected for the second time this coming Saturday but Spence has now pulled out. So tomorrow I'll start offering it to the other people on the list but please I am a genuine bloke so if you are not that serious about buying it and not able to collect quickly then I will unfortunately have to offer it to someone else. Sorry if this sounds abrupt but I'm already down £300 in lost overtime for 2 Saturdays that were given to other staff as I couldn't work and also foolishly spent money on my LC on the strength of knowing I had the money coming. If all else fails it'll have to go on eBay but that would be a shame.
