Well whwn the shineray has a title and the kawi dont, and the kawi needs all new suspension and a new lighting coil? I also prefer the much more modern suspension for offroading....LOL
The lil 100 isnt going anywhere hough, keeping that around for a bit....LOL |

here a 1975 kawa would get you top dollar. i m with pete, i would have kept the kawa. but then here registration quite easy, no title papers as such required.
having seen those pics of your pocket buell i wonder what you ve got in mind with your new china?

Nothing dramatic planned for this one, the background of selling the kawi is theres more than meets the eye wrong with it than just the title...the harness is shot, forks and rear shocks shot, tires dry rot, oil injection lines are shot, (cant get them either) needs a new light coil, headlights shot, tail light has no lens, seats shot, and i could keep going on and on... The switch was a no braner to me...trade a clapped out 30 ur old bike for an 07 with 2200km on ittht just needs some harness work and a new cdi...
