Dang! This sounds like an adventure and what is better than an adventure?!
Riding and if (knock wood) breaking down and renting a truck is a simple solution. Getting it in the truck may be another adventure though.
Most of all I like your positive attitude. Life is short. You will remember your trip forever.
Good luck.Comment

It's a Kawasaki. It should be fine. Do what TNC said except install a new battery instead of checking what's there because it may test good then shit the bed due to age. There's no reason not to and it protects the charging system vs. an old battery which can short due to sulfation or crumbs rattling loose while riding.
Bring or download a service manual and bookmark Kawasaki forums etc.Last edited by farmall; 10-27-2019, 6:22 PM.Comment

I had to give in and ship it, I could not afford to take the time off.This is the busiest time of year for me and if it took 4-5 days for some reason I would be a month behind on jobs. Should be here by the 11th.I just hope the damn snow holds off for a couple rides !! Thanks for the info/interest everyone.Also the more I read about these inline 4 cylinders has me dreaming of a turbo on this.....one day.Comment

I'd save a turbo for something expendable. He who makes his main ride a race bike walks often. However if you score another engine you could afford to frag one but everyone else did that thirty years ago which is why there are fewer donors.
You can also use a modern powerplant producing far more ponies and build another trike. The best way to go fast is start fast and used Hayabusas are affordable. If I went that route I'd use stock front suspension since all that cool old stuff is from an era of SLOW speeds by modern standards.

I like the sign, but not that trike.I lean more towards EdRoth style. I got the trike for Way under his asking, but with the condition of it in pics/ video I was willing to take some risk on it for the price.I will know sunday/monday when it arrives! we may have snow by then, yup thats Michigan.Comment
