OUCH!
I don't have the original tool kit that came with the bike. Other than the silencer that fits under the seat, it's the one thing I'm missing. $150 is a lot of scratch for a set of tools, original or not. Think I'll keep looking.

Too much for my blood too, although I'm getting discouraged. I have the original tool kit and owner's manual for my KZ 400, but neither item were on my new (to me)kz750. I've lost three bids so far for a kz750 tool kit on ebay. Darn snipers!

i just put this one on my watch list to see if someone buys it.
i never thought of selling the oe tool kits.
i get them in bikes all the time and i usually just give them to a friend or something. most of the time they are not complete so it's no big deal.
go figure?

someday i will be able to afford my kz habit.

Before ebay I could go to a salvage yard and buy a tool kit for $20. Now with ebay, everything is up in the stratosphere.

321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

ALOT OF EBAY SELLERS HAVE MORE THAN ONE USER NAME AND WILL BID ON THERE OWN STUFF. SO SNIPEING SOME TIMES IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO.IT CAN GET YOU A GOOD DEAL BUT IT DOESNT LEAVE YOU A CHANSE TO BIG AGAIN.

I saw a tool kit like that one go for the same, $150.00 a while back. I have bought a few recently around $30.00 to $40.00. Figured, if I can get them complete and under $50.00, what the heck, think I have 3 or 4 tool kits now

Yea...that seller is always on the high side for his parts. The parts are usually in great shape, but also on the expensive side. I have bought from him before and his parts are quality stuff...he doesn't sell junk, but you best have some money in your account.
