                Why would you want to do that to a beast like that. If I had a choice, I would buy it & restore it back to its original condition with a few tweaks. So in case its for sale, do let me know

                  the whole electrical & wiring is a gone case with that bike. Many people tried all their brains out and then left it aside as a useless piece of junk. I guess, unless one can get hold of original electrical parts & wiring, you would have no progress ahead.

                  it is lying there as a piece of junk and hence they'd be glad to sell it for what ever they get.

                    So if you can hook it up for me, then do let me know. I'm in constant touch with the Kawa guys for my 14R. Surely they can hook up the wiring etc.

                      Pls get in touch with the thread starter... he wanted to get this restored. He told me that if he can find a way to get the parts he'll buy it from them. It seems it is in a garage near to his place and took him a long time in identifying the exact model name.

                      At least one of you can get this bike instead of leaving it on the road side museum.

                        found the baby in e.s.i...
                        the whole chasis,engine frame etc looked fine...

                        i think we can get her moving if one can meddle with it's electrical's... the exhausts,discs and all the visible metals look fine and rust free..
                        but as u can see,the body panels are all $%#@ up(which i don't think would be a problem),but the head light assembly looked fine...

                        @ onlinesatish:i wanted it for myself very badly but my parents are not very passionet about restoration stuff (happened the same with a rd 350 torque edition) and me meddling with them...
                        but let us see...

                        if any one is interseted in the bike,just let me know...
                        just wanna hear that baby growl...
                        my full support for anyone who wants to...
                        the mec spoke nothing abt selling it(as i did'nt ask him),but i think he will..


                        if u ask me,restoring it would be very much easy as the bike is in perfect shape....would be a screamer with some time put into it.... a valuable asset if u ask me...
                        also saw in some web site that the stock bike touches 200+ kmph...

                            i got the update that it is some custmores bike and he left it there...
                            i asked the mech to persue that guy to sell it...
                            he said that he would let me know...
                            or else we can ask that guy to give it to us for restoration and we could charge him later....
