This bike has all of the right bits, good spares and there are some serious names in its history. It'll need a rebuild but don't they all? It's in California as well which cuts a big lump of internal shipping out of the equation, you just have to factor a Northern to Southern California trip into the cost...which at 2k is pretty damn good.

That's always been the downfall (pardon the pun) of the rotary Kawa and Rotax engines when fitted with a bigger carby than stock that won't fit within the original case. I'd take a chance and hope for the best! ::)
