1997 Kawasaki ER5a non runner

bought by a friend of mine a couple of months ago only to find it was a waste of money. 46000 miles, only runs when it feels like it, piston rings have gone, fuel gets down into the oil, needs an engine rebuild, a new rear wheel and some other bits. £250. perfect for someone who wants a project or to make a cafe racer out of. pick up from north herts, you will need a trailer or van.

“It was a total waste of money” - you’re really selling this one here mate!

Be a good project for someone though, these are tough little bikes and I really enjoyed mine

Clearly not that tough if it needs a rebuild at only 46k!!!

We are unaware what level of abuse it’s been subjected it to before Mian’s mate bought it. Mine was really tough and these would make a fun little cafe racer. They usually get sold on the cheap as the drum in the rear wheel can go out of round, which is an MoT failure, but a quick skim at an engineering shop usually sorts this.

mine did 24k under me with almost no maintanence. I’d love to fix and keep it myself but I’ve no room

bump

I like it, offer £50.
