I bought from a UK importer,I’ve fancied the big ke for a long time. Kawasaki never sold the ke250 in the uk. So no spares whatsoever. When I got it home it was in a sorry condition. And they cost a lot more over here too mine was £2000 /2600 dollarsI saw one for sale in fairly good condition for £5500.My bike had a lot of parts missing, sun bleached tank rusty inside. Ripped seat with rusty pan back light and rear turn signals missing. Cracked tyres but my biggest problem was all the missing parts. But it is a very good bike and it had only done 2700 miles.&nbsp; Like any old Kawasaki it was a joy to work on. At some point I came across big Dans you tube video. Wow that was great to see how good they ran and sounded. Thanks for that Dan it’s the best ke250 video I’ve seen. I bought a lot of parts from Texas including a manual but I bought parts from all over the US.I think the only part I’m missing now is the toolbox under the seat. If I can work out how I’ll post some pictures.The bike was built to do a coast to coast trip across four national parks in the Lake District across England. The bike is now finished and running fantastic.&nbsp; Thanks Paul[/QUOTE]
