***PLEASE READ ENTIRE LISTING FIRST*** 1978 Kawasaki KZ1000B2 LTD with 20,251 original miles......I bought this bike from the original owner in 1980 when it had 3200 miles and has been in my private climate-controlled collection for the past 36 years......It still has the original Black paint with decals that shines like new and the fuel tank has 1 tiny ding mark on the right middle side area and 1 tiny bad spot in the paint underneath the right "Kawasaki" emblem......Inside the tank is nice and clean and I never had to clean it out ever.....Right side body cover has a piece of the Red pinstriping missing and the left side has a tiny piece missing......Paint is still nice and shiny with a perfect gloss to it and I always keep it waxed......Chrome is perfect with no dents/dings and no rust or pitting dots......Seat cover and foam is still original and in great shape with no cuts and is still nice and soft and seat pan looks great too......I did replace the tires 2 years ago and never put any miles on them so they are still like new and rims look and shine great.....Disc rotors are perfect with no glazing or wear/burn marks and brake pads have years of life left......Gauges look and shine like new with no water stains under the glass and no rust or dents on the Black----I did just replace the tach cable.....I did replace the ignition switch 4 years ago and it has a different key than the seat lock......Fork seals I replaced a few years ago and they are perfect with no leaks and dust caps have no cracks----no pitting or rust on the chrome sleeves......The engine is all original and has never been apart ever and it still looks great----no scrapes/damage to any of the covers and it still has the factory points.....It starts up and runs perfect with no engine smoke or leaks and no noises and clutch is perfect too.....I did clean and rebuild the carburetor 2 years ago and it is still nice and runs on/off the choke perfectly......Has a newer Vanes&Hines chrome header exhaust that looks and shines great with no rust......Frame paint is original and has never been touched up and has no rust......Has the dealer installed center main stand too. **PLEASE SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY CONTACT ME FIRST BEFORE BUYING*** Thanks. I have owned this bike for the past 36 years and don't want to play any games with it. The only things not stock is the hand grips----it is missing the chrome rear grabbar which is not included.....I have the original owners manual and warranty papers and it still has the original 1978 title which is clear and ready for the next owner.....These are getting hard to find and the ones that are not all butchered up and modified are the ones you want to own......Everything works including the horn. THERE IS A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $500.00 THROUGH PAYPAL AND THE REMAINDER IS DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS. I CAN ASSIST WITH SHIPPING BUT WILL NOT ARRANGE IT----SHIPPING AND PICKUP IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER. SOLD IN AS IS CONDITION WITH NO WARRANTIES. NO TRADE OFFERS I CAN DELIVER WITHIN 50 MILES OF AURORA, IL. FOR A SMALL FEE. PLEASE CONTACT ME FIRST WITH ANY QUESTIONS THANKS!
