Don't know too much about these. Price seems reasonable.

Great bikes in their time.

Had an 81 KZ750 that i bought new. Loved that bike. I'd still talk him down though, he said himself it's no show bike.

I've said it before, and I'll say it a thousand more times- I owned and loved a KZ750 LTD when I was in the army, and that bike is the entire reason I bought my CB and the style I have made it into. Beer

o man...be careful if you really want the bike. some people can be real jerks about this. I know, i'm one of them. I strongly dislike the whole concept of haggling, so I always put "firm" prices on things when i'm selling them. people who contact me with attempts to haggle usually get silence in response, even after i've changed the price to something lower than they offered and put up a new ad.

RE: 1979 Kawasaki KZ650 - KiowaEagle_imp - 07-06-2018

I agree the bike looks in great shape but but you never know until you see it in person. When it comes down to it the bike is worth what ever the buyer is willing to pay. I just know I've seen similar bikes recently at similar prices either not selling or selling for less. Whether or not the seller is willing to haggle is his choice but it never hurts to ask.

RE: 1979 Kawasaki KZ650 - LongRanger_imp - 07-06-2018

I enjoy the haggling stuff. If someone is genuinely interested in what I'm selling, I will usually work with them. I price my stuff fairly and usually get it. But if they're being a jerk and offer a lower price just to see how much of a sucker I am, and I sense they're not really interested, I'll counter with a price that exceeds my original asking price. "I'll give you $2700 for the bike." "Well, I'm asking $3100 but I'll take $3400." After they lose the dumbfounded look from their face, they come to realize that my asking price is just as arbitrary as their offer, so we meet halfway and I get my original price. Or they walk.
