    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Kawasaki S1 on ebay

That was amazing.

I liked the one guy who asked if there was a "Buy It Now" price. LOL

Seller knew what he had and the reason it was on Ebay was because he knew there would be a feeding frenzy at the end.
 
Okay, you just bought this bike for $107,200 Now what do you do with it? Look at it, maybe take it to shows? It's not like your going to double your money in a year or two. However, if I were a multimillionaire, I would want it for my collection... I gess I just answered my oun question.
 
Great story. Hope the money does good for the seller,and the buyer enjoys the bike.
 
Missed out on that one.

Missed out on that one.

I bid on that bike but it got too rich for me so I dropped out after it went past $1,000.00;)

Just can't keep up with eddie21, oh well maybe I'll stick with what I know.

Suzuki, Suzuki, Suzuki and more Suzuki's.:D
 
We talked about who might have bought it and figured the Barber Museum was high on that list. There are a few motorsports museums that would be interested, but Barber would be the most likely.

Whoever bought it would likely never race it (or would they?) - and it's not a mint example. It comes with a significant spare parts collection.

I hope the new owner comes to light...
 
Most KZ1000S1's were raced, and raced hard!!! I saw one totaled at Road America back in 1982, and it was sitting still when it got totaled!!!! I got some pictures of it after it got ass ended. I have seen many a S1 crash back in the day.

The one one that was just sold is pretty close to being in perfect shape for a race bike. I know of one S1 that has NEVER been fired up, and sits in a private collection of Kawasaki road racers. I heard the Harry Klinzmann / Racecrafters S1 is still in someones collection here in the states.

Heres what a S1 looks like after it gets ass ended by a sliding TZ750 at about 100MPH!!!!
