I have a 1989 Kawasaki ZX750F Ninja 750R. Clear Mass Title. Has 19,130 miles. It was last on the road three years ago,(info) from previous owner. I bought it as a project bike, but with the arrival of my next child, I don't think I'm going to be able to touch it for a while. I have had some help with looking at the bike to get it running, and the last two oil changes there were some metal shavings in the oil, so at this point I'm going to pull the plug on getting it going since the investment is going to be too high for a questionable motor.
I have two sets of fairings and misc parts on it. Blue Set, a Yellow set. Bike is not currently running, it does run but chugs a bit. New throttle cable, oil change etc. I have it sitting at a bike shop that a friend works at right now.
Might be best to part it out, or to work on if you have the expertise. Bike has a clear signed over title, and currently has all the fairings off to work on. I have two sets of headlights, gauge cluster, and a bunch of extra parts from the yellow set. The Blue set is the complete piece minus some damage to the front fairing.
If there is enough interest in parts, then I will start to part it out. Looking to get around $1000 for all the pieces, but certainly willing to negotiate for the right person. I bought it for $500 and have put in a little more than another $500 to acquire new pieces such as a gas tank, throttle cables etc.
If anyone has some great ideas what I could do to try to recoup some of my money that would be awesome. Any and all interesting trades are all welcome. Bike is up in metrowest area and you'd have to trailer it out or I can ask a friend about helping if you cannot. Would be something cool for someone with more time and expertise than I.. chasing a 2 yo and tending to an infant, as well as dealing with a new house here is just not enough time for me to have a non-running project
