Brand new 86 Tecate seen at Irvine Ca

[Marty]

Kawasaki has this 86 Tecate at their Irvine Distribution warehouse. You have to get access or know someone who works there in order to see this little museum for employees only. Notice the rear sticker that is supposed to say TECATE204388204389

Thats cool, Many years ago they uncrated a Tecate for the dealer show and handed out these cards to the dealers. Wife works at a dealership and the owner brought back the cards for me. Same card as in the picture wonder if that is the same Tecate. Thanks for posting

Pics saved for when people claim they have a "Mint" bike. That there is mint folks, take notes.

Absolutely beautiful Kawasaki, thanks for sharing Marty!!

Love the ads that say MINT just needs this and that and burns a little oil. LOL.

Thanks for posting those pics. Freakin' awesome! I bet blue27 is right. It has to be the same bike!

If they had one in the crate it makes you wonder if they have more?

Interesting... if they had it in 87 they would have had to destroy it right?
So were did it come from?

[Marty]

No Kawasaki was exempt from lawsuit, Gov only went after Honda, that Tecate is at the Irvine Ca west coast district office. That there little museum is upstairs so employees can see it. Unless you work there or a friend takes you in there that will be only way to look at stuff in Kawasaki west coast district office

sorry but did someone take those photos with a potato or something...

[Marty]

Sorry but no potato was used. I was there with a sponsored rider and there are rules and regulations. And photo taking pics not allowed. So I had to do it quick. But pics on my phone don't look as bad as when I transferred them.
