Help/Hulp etc .... my Kawasaki KLE 500 developed an oil leak from the oil passage plug (near the sight glass) so I tried tightening it and it promptly snapped off. I can't find one and Kawasaki will only get in 3 weeks. My question .... does anyone have an old motor or bike that isn't running...

In 1975 Howard Mellet won a round of the SA Production bike championship aboard a BMW R90S. Today Greg Gildenhuis won a round of the Superbike championship at PE.... the first track win in SA for BMW in 35 years. Awesome!!!

I've just decided to buy a Kawasaki KLE 500 with 36 000km and an engine that's bever been opened. I have only seen pics of it and the owner will be bringing it through to JHB this weekend - I have paid him some money to cover his costs and if I take it that will come off the price. What should...

In a natural standing stance, my bottom is closer to the ground than most people ....... So, any tips on how to go about lowering a KLE 500?
