1983 Kawasaki Z250C
Registration no. EDB 688Y
Frame no. KZ250C003124
Engine no. KZ250DE021632

Kawasaki's single-cylinder '250' debuted in 1980 in a variety of guises, the sports roadster version being known as the Z250C. The Z250C's single-overhead-cam engine boasted an electric starter and a five-speed gearbox, and the machine came with alloy wheels as standard and drum brakes at both ends. The elderly vendor acquired the Kawasaki in October 2015 from his brother, who had owned it since 2007; other than that, its history is not known. The machine was last taxed to 30th June 2015.

Currently displaying a total of 26,762 miles to the odometer, this is a potentially most rewarding project that will require recommissioning and/or restoration to a greater or lesser extent before returning to the road (the engine turns over). Sold strictly as viewed, the machine is offered with a V5C document, SORN papers and a Kawasaki Motorcycle Service Manual.
