          ah, those magic words "Was running. Needs carb cleaned." I just wish for one more word and maybe an ellipsis "Was running. Needs carb cleaned and ..."

                "Was running." Every bike was running.

                I could not tell that it is a Kawasaki. I still can't discern how many cylinders or cc's it has.

                          I can absolutely guarantee it "might be" a KZ650.

                                1. Carbs need fine tuning
                                2. Needs 'minor' work
                                I'll venture it is not running well now. Not by a long shot. And just to seal the deal...
                                3. No title!

                                It's the much-desired 11E "touring model." I'll guess the monetary value of that ancient Windjammer (SS?) is one tenth the value of the proper 'train' headlight that should be there. Did I say "one tenth"? Make that 1%.

                                It looks like an 'outdoor' bike. If I were a capable mechanic, and saw that it started, I might go as high as 1G. IF it has a title.
