    It's perfect except for that front fender, I always wondered why the 84/5 kxt fenders always got those stress marks, while the 86/7 never did.

    My guess is 7500-8000, it's been a while since a nice one came up and times have changed...

    IMG_5854.jpgThere is a perfect Kawasaki 250 Tecate at west coast headquarters in Los Angeles. But it is not for sale. Its only can be viewed by employees thereOnly reason I saw it was a friend of mine is sponsored Kawi rider and I waited for him while he was at his monthly meeting. But my jaw dropped when I saw it.

    I like the story, but if I found that bike sitting in a barn for 25 years it would be in much worse condition. That barn must have been heated. I wonder how much the story adds to the price.

    "Barn Find" has become a generic term for sure.

    Otherwise, what an awesome score. Im jealous.

    I wonder how dirty the barn was or rather how much cleanup work they did to it after they hauled it home.

    I have bought parts from them and they have listed other very nice clean Honda trikes in the past. How they find the stuff is what baffles me.
