Regardless, I wouldn't buy from someone with ZERO history unless I were close enough to see the bike with my own eyes before forking over the cash. West Linn, OR

Yes it's close, but they all don't have the exact same description.

Judging that the seller is stating that these bikes are being sold from...the liquidation of an excellent and elite collection..., I'm guessing that these bikes are all "one" from a collection of "500" total bikes.

I agree about not feeling comfortable bidding on and/or buying from a new eBay member, but everyone started with "0" feedback at one time, right?

If you were really interested in getting one of those (I know I'D love to have one, or all of them!) sweet looking bikes, you could always ask the seller if he/she would be willing to show the bikes to you in person.
That should squash any questions as to if they're legit or not.

Never had any problems and wasn't disappointed when I picked them up. Some sellers had lots of feedback others had little. 1981 KZ550C LTD (SOLD) 1980 GS750L 1982 KZ750N1 Spectre (New Project)

talking of ebay. i won two windjammers a couple days ago just a few mile from home and went to get them yesterday, very cool guy, he ended up giving me the fairings, but in his garage were 3 Z1R's, two were turbos, a kz900 and a gpz1100. the turbos have been on the bay a few times but they are not making his reserve, i had to run away before i bought one.
