It’s in great shape. New piston/cylinder, newish chain/sprockets, new rubber, heavier springs (for my big ass), just re-built forks, piped (FMF Fatty), it was a race bike in its former life so basically nothing’s stock on it...
It runs awesome...starts on the first kick. The little thing just hauls ass. =) Not quite as fast and dangerous as my old KX250 Widowmaker, but much lighter and better suited to the riding area around my house. The Kawi always felt like it wanted to go too fast...like a jetski in a bathtub. This one still does the automatic wheelies when it comes on the pipe in the first couple gears but it runs out of steam a lot quicker once you get up to speed...
Which is probably a good thing.
