Could be worse I guess, they could've cafe'd it instead
« on: August 24, 2019, 06:56:42 PM »
A biker club in Crawfordsville, Indiana called "The Iron Order" has this fine piece of machinery on what seems to be permanent display, for some odd reason I get the impression they don't like Jap bikes and or their owners. What a shame, they seemed like such nice guys. :)

I guess that's THE only way you're going to ever stop a JAP bike's life.

it'd be tempting to just pull the axles, lift the bike onto a trailer and leave the wheels in concrete
i blame Terry

Definitely a Kawasaki, shaft drive but not the plain GT750 variety , looks like maybe an LTD model of either a 750 or bigger with that tank and seat
i blame Terry
