So whats your point?

More low mileage and crated Kawasaki's?


No I just found it ironic that you were looking for one. Guess I should have kept my amusement at such things to myself.

It is in both my galleries listed in the signature.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

1979 Yamaha XS650.  I have owned this bike since new.  I have ridden it from Minnesota to California and back and many trips between Minnesota and Montana.  Has never been apart and the only repairs aside from routine wear items has been to the speedo drive gear and fuel petcock rebuild.  100% reliable rock solid vertical twin.  I love this bike.

I haven't had any but lots of owners have. http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/

I've had Guzzis, a Ducati, BMW, and now an Aprillia and to be honest none of them have been as reliable as my 37 year old Hondas. I said that on the Aprilia forum once and was told to leave. For example the paint on my K3 is the original factory orange paint with very few blemishes and little fading, the paint on my Aprilia started pealing after a month and "might" get fixed under warranty depending on what the factory says. The Shiver is a hoot to ride though!!! and is a marvel of technology what with fly by wire and change on the fly fuel mapping etc.
