Best $100 I ever spent

Post by Liquifried »

Just found this on Craigslist last night. Picked it up today and paid full asking price of $100 :beers; Sled is complete. Carbs are off but the seller had them with the airbox. Original owner. Has sat in storage for 20 years! Sled has 984 miles. Bought from dealer 5 mi from where I grew up.

1981 Kawasaki LTD

Thanks for the info! I have to redo the motor anyway, so that would be awesome! What are the specs on the HP of this sled?
