Naked pictures They told me they are going to total it but I could pick it up from the dealer and keep in my garage until it's settled. Fools ! I decided to take a closer look, and remove all the add ons at the same time. We'll see what happens from here.

I would try to buy it back, too. Could make some $$$ selling all the parts you didn't want on Ebay. Maybe even sell it as is or make a drag-bike out of it. I only paid State Farm around 900 to keep my first 12 after I totalled it. Probably find enough parts in the classifieds here to make it look lots better. Too many options.....

Just ride it that way... Hey, as it sits, it still looks better than most of those "naked sportbike" or "street fighter" things.

Nothing is for sale until I get a word from the insurance company about what is happening. I think I can rebuild it pretty easily if the price is right and will look to do that if possible. If that doesn't work out the there may be a few parts that fall off of it in my garage before it gets loaded on to the scrap truck.

Hey Dave there is a Brand new faster green model leftover on Ebay right now for 8100 LOL LOL LOL.... Buy that one back and have all the parts you could ever need.... Even a xtra motor to make a 1361 with no down time....... Parts to polish with no down time thatt would rock......

Faster, green, um, I don't understand, you must be confused. The only green I've seen is from the plants I tore up with that 170mph lawn mower trick and I already got those off the faster red 12.
makes me want to cry every time I go into the garage too Dave

I guarentee I would want to cry too..... Know you all know Kawasaki has been team Green for years.... They saved a little xtra horsepower and hid it in the green ones.... LOL They can't have Red,Blue,and Silver ones outrunning team green now.... Just a theory still trying to prove it though... Seems like the Green owners are easiest to convince.....
posted March 22, 2002 08:22 AM
If the green was the traditional Kawasaki green and not that faded green color they paint them I'd have a green one. I like the look of the 6R, 7R, and 9R but the 12 and its' all green blah doesn't do it for me. Make it into Kawasaki war paint and I'd be there.
But then again if you look in my garage at the other things there you may say I am a red Kaw fan after all.

The radiator looks to be in fine shape.......I always thought it would take a bad hit in an accident. Damn Dave..... ____________

I think that was called a flippy and not a stoppie. He can tease a little greenie, he called the ambulance for me that night so I guess he owes me a few shots. Although I do remember lying on the ground and him asking me what the number for 911 was, good thing I remembered.
WB, the radiator is bent. Hard to see from that picture but the opening where the cap is took a hit and is bent enough to keep the cap from sealing. Crushed in and down a little on the outside. Kinda gives you an idea on the angle it landed, from the sky on to the right front top deal. The one bar that the nose and mirror bolts to on that side is bent too. If you look at yours you can see it's welded with some pretty hefty supports, well not hefty enough.
