    Awesome find at Kawi shop.

    A couple months ago our dealership decided to buy out a local Kawasaki/Yamaha dealer so we wouldn't have any competition when we build our own. Well I was one of the lucky few to help load some stuff, including service manuals. Well as I was moving them from the shelfs to the pallet we were moving them with, out of one slipped a green, thin booklet. About the size of a service manual, but only maybe 20-30 pages long. I picked it up and was amazed to find a Factory reference on how to turn your Tecate 3 wheeler into a factory replica of a real Kawasaki racer. The fellas name who's signature was printed on the front had the last name of White. I don't have the book in front of me, seeing as how I'm at work. But I will find out his first name tonight when I get home and have access to the book. It details every mod his tirke had. Even down to what tires he used anand for what. Any part he added or has a part number if it's kaw, or an address and phone number if it's aftermarket. It's a pretty wicked piece, but since I'm into Honda I'll probly sell. Will post pics tonight or tomorrow.

    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY SH-T, what a ride!"

    I think they came with a signed glossy picture of Jimmy White on his 3 wheeler too.
