Just traded a mower for this it's a 1980 kawasaki klx250. It's sat for like 20 years it sat outside, the steering was locked at an angle that was fun lol, amazingly it is not locked up, also surprisingly I got it runnin!!!! The carb is junk though so I need a rebuild kit for it. And when I pulled te seat off after sitting on it, picking the bike up and every thing guess what was under it. A snake luckily I have quick reactions and it was just a corn snake but liked like a copperhead at first. That was to close for comfort.

You gonna get fenders for it? I would have figured it was a 2 stroke from being a kawasaki lol.

I got it running really good and idling but the intake is broke and the carb keeps falling off, got the steering free and clutch free.

Um i'm thinking 2 stroke swap lol. You can get make a boot from the carb to the air box from stuff from home depot. The engine you'll have to buy one.
