There is no way. NO way I could have gotten this bike from California to Chicago at twice the price I paid to have Larry and his wife bring it back for me. I can't thank them enough for their good deed. Well worth the money spent! It all started with my crazy need to own another kz that I myself can't understand. So my brother joins the search and found this bike near him. I called this guy several times and not once did he return my call. Then after I had given up hope on this bike and old kz's I considered spending the amount I would have needed to fix mine up the right way on a new ducati monster. My brother told me to wait until this guy calls him back and I did for some unknown reason. Two weeks later my brother called me about the bike. Turns out this guy was in Japan and was in his seventies. He had the bike in pieces and was going to clean it and make new again but hurt his back and had to sell the bike. It was fate that my brother got the bike at a price the accessories were worth. I considered flying/driving up riding back, renting a truck, borrowing a truck but no matter how I looked at it it would cost me way more than what I had paid for the bike. I felt kind of stupid for buying such an old bike and in pieces and then his wife who no doubt would be frustrated with him for having it in his garage. I thought about her and so the next day I had an idea and clicked on UShip and not even two minutes later Larry bid on a price that was so incredibly cheap I couldn't resist and they were going to pick it up the next day. What a coincidence. All I can say is that someone above was looking out for me on all fronts. The bike is beautiful and the price Wow! Saved my brothers love life as well. His wife I am sure is happy about the whole thing as well. UShip I was told by Larry is a completely reputable shipping source. He said that they are all professionals that work for them. I believe implicitly that he is completely honest and forthcoming about this.
