Default Looks like the cycle I got in May was FREE

Last May I purchased this 1993 Kawasaki ZR1100




I cashed out some of the mutual funds I have thru American Funds to pay for the cycle. I had to check out the exact date I originally purchased them ( capital gains for tax purposes).

Looks like I was "smart" for getting the funds out when I did. The funds are down about 60% since I cashed out for the cycle payment. If I would have left the entire amount in the funds, my loss would be much greater than double the price of the bike.

Nice find.

That looks REALLY clean for a '93.

It's also screaming out for some clip-ons, a bob job and a solo seat.

A bolt on windscreen for cool weather

I don't want to chop it up at all. Kawasaki only offered this model in the USA in '93.
