I am going to start out by saying,I own 14 bikes right now and I can honestly say that each and every vintage bike I own has some issue or quirk(NOT THIS ONE!) This bike starts and runs amazing,and with it's lowered stance and the drag type seat(it handles like a slot car) I also own a 1985 V-Max which is supposedly the fastest bike in 85. This bike feels stronger than the V-Max and I know for a fact it handles a lot better. I am going to be selling the V-max also but it needs the carbs gone thru(as do most of the other bikes I will soon be selling here on ebay) like I said in the beginning most of the bikes have issues,but not my eliminator. She starts up with just a little choke and runs perfect within seconds you can shut the choke all the way down. The lights all work. The brakes work fantastic. The only work i had to do to this bike besides customizing it with lowered shocks/seat/smaller turn signals and a axel mounted license plate so i could get rid of that butt ugly rear fender extension. I installed a manual cam chain adjuster from A.P.E. because I heard the nightmare stories about the auto adjuster screwing up at high RRRRS and the cam chain jumping a tooth and destroying these beasts. My price might be a little more than the other stock eliminators but most of them are the garden variety ZL900s not the 1 year only ZL1000 like mine. I did not keep any of the stock parts(I actually sold them on CL to be able to purchase the stuff I needed to build this sinister looking ride!! If you have any questions or concerns please e-mail me and I will get back to you promptly. I can store the bike while arrangements are made for shipping or you can just show up and ride this bike anywhere. Note:there is a tiny little ding on right side of tank on top by fuel cap(to little to show in pics) you can see it if the sun shines across the glossy black paint.
