Ef them… they’re missing 2 cylinders… :-p

j/k but it seems like for the price, you could have a nicer/more common bike for even less. Maintenance will be cheaper too.

Why not buy a 636? :leghump: :lol:

don’t buy it. looks too much like a shriver 750. little know fact: when kawasaki put the 636 into production, they were going to call it the shriver 636. when shrives had dinner at mr. kawasaki’s house that night, he asked him. shrives told him no, call it a ninja, but make sure that he’s the only person in the world who gets to buy one. mr. kawasaki then dropped to his knees, bowed to shrives, gave him his grandfather’s kimono, a baker’s dozen in geisha girls, a blowjob (swallowed), and the title to all future kawasaki green 636’s.

just get a gixxer, matching helmet and jacket, and we’ll just walk around the mall.
