    I wonder if anybody ever actually manages to sell one of these pieces of art.

    Man, I guess I should put the one I just drug home on fleabay :evil. I had managed to have never seen one before and the price was certainly right!
    It even came with some spare plastic. Somebody buy it please, I have way too many projects to ever complete :D

    This is great news. I recently bought a KZ750 twin for $400 with the original pipes. Should be worth $10,000-$12,000 in no time. :clap

    Cheers

    I just got a kz750 rear end (swingarm, wheel, brakes, sprocket, axle, shocks) and front wheel with rotor for FREE with a 1976 Honda xl350 I bought. ( I wanted the Honda, and you never say no to free parts...)

    I took the Honda and parts over to my Dad's house (he has a bigger garage than me). He proceeded to throw the KZ parts away, assuming that they were worthless, since complete kz750 bikes used to be worthless.

    I dug them out of the dumpster and posted them on CL... I got offered $200 for the parts!!! Some hipster kid needed the wheels for is 'sweet' Café build...lol. He could have bought a complete bike for $200 about 5 years ago. I just cant believe it...

    Or cleaning them.....
    Wait, they won't get dirty when it doesn't get ridden.

    Never understood why someone would want to take a perfectly good bike like that and only show it, never ride it.

    +1! I love everything about that yellow bike except the ugly ass wheels. I'd rather a set of '78 ComStar wheels!!
