Geared 16-40 with new 520 MSR chain
NUMEROUS new factory Kawasaki bits- intake manifold (Carb boot) exhaust hangers, sub-frame bolts, foot pegs, gaskets etc etc.
Recipts for all the parts I bought, and the work from STM.

I blue-tread locked everything when I did the final assembly to keep stuff from coming off on the track.
Extras- I bought basically what I thought I would need if I laid it down at the track- extra plastics, extra tank, levers, radiators, hoses etc. Again I’ll edit this as I get all the stuff back to the house to inventory it again.

Motor runs strong, the reason I bought this particular bike to build. I took it out for a shakedown session at IMI raceway (20 laps) last spring after I built it, and it runs awesome- stops NOW and handles pretty well (For a dirt bike) pulls hard but controllable with current gearing.
I built this bike to run the Colorado Class with the MRA (Colorado road racing club). I got it where I wanted it but lost interest.

Needs- I went to change the transmission oil after the shakedown and found the plug seemed it was stripped, as it turned but wouldn’t back out. It did, however tighten back up (?) but doesn’t leak. If you are going to race it needs drilled and wired, and a catch can for the carb. Maybe other little things, I didn’t get a chance to bring it to Bart before I began my house purchasing adventure.

Not interested in parting out. Might be interested in a trade for a street legal supermoto or a camper trailer.
I have a video of it running if you would like to see it.
