Kawasaki KH400 S3 description
CLEAN, CLEAR PENNA. TITLE IN MY NAME!Be sure to read all the way to the bottom, as I'll probably be adding info during the listing.The bodywork has been painted, not to a concours standard by any means. The gas tank is clean inside. It has some lumps/bumps/unevenness on the right side. I think it has some bondo there, probably a result of the spill that's evident in damage to the brake pedal and the right pipes (see pics). Seat obviously needs to be recovered. Left side cover has a repaired crack at the top front corner. As you can see in the pics, the major chrome parts are really nice. The bars, fenders and wheel rims are pretty much like-new. The pipes are shiny, but have some dings and scrapes. Everything electrical works properly, as do the brakes. It starts right up and runs strongly and smoothly...EXCEPT FOR ONE MAJOR ISSUE. I bought this thinking it would be a modest money-maker, but it turned out I got hosed by a somewhat-less-than-honest seller. (Or hosed myself by not riding it before buying it.) It turned out that this "everything works, ready to ride" (from his CL ad) bike has a whining/chattering noise in 5th gear that doesn't sound good at all. Everything's fine in the 4 lower gears, but as soon as you shift into 5th you get the noise. I only rode it a couple miles. I have no idea what it is or what it will take to fix it. So now I'm just hoping to get my money back out of it. I figured Ebay was the best place to get whatever it might be worth, so here it is. If it sells for the opening bid, I break even monetarily after tax/title/Ebay fees. Now the legalese: A non-refundable deposit of $100 via PayPal is required within 24 hours of the auction's end. Remainder to be paid in cash on pickup or bank wire transfer. NO PAYPAL FOR THE TOTAL! This is being sold as "Local Pickup Only" - buyer is responsible for making and paying for any and all shipping arrangements. I will work with your shipper, and if necessary can haul/deliver it within about 200 miles for $1.00 per loaded mile. I can deliver it to AMA Vintage Days in Mid-Ohio for $250. (It's a 360-mile trip.) The time frame of the auction's end vs. my leaving for Mid-Ohio at oh-dark-thirty on Thurs. the 7th may complicate things if you DON'T want it delivered there, because I'll be unable to do any delivery/meeting-halfway, etc. next week. Ask any questions BEFORE bidding, please, and GOOD LUCK! |

A Dizzying Lap Of Imola + Video
Wed, 14 May 2014Nilox, the action camera sponsor for World Superbike, makes it a point to film an on-board lap of each track on the calendar before each race weekend. A few weeks ago we brought you footage of Giuliano Rovelli lapping a Honda CBR1000RR SP around Assen. This week Rovelli is back, this time aboard a Kawasaki ZX-10R, giving us a rapid tour of Imola, the track made famous by the tragic passing of Formula 1 legend Ayrton Senna 20 years ago, and also by the legendary battle between Troy Bayliss and Colin Edwards in 2002 which decided the championship.
Mobile tea-urn
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This steam powered motorcycle (not a bicycle, 'cos it don't have no pedals), could be perfect for you if you like a brew at short notice on your Sunday ride. Built in 1894, it's about to be auctioned and is expected to reach a world record price (for a kettle). It uses a coal furnace to super-heat water into steam which is fed into a small engine.
