I bought it off of a guy who listed on one of those Facebook buy sell and trade pages he listed it as a 1999 kx125 that wasn't running good and he was tired of putting money into it. He didn't seem to notice or care that it looked like one of matt walkers kx125s. So I show up at his cousins place to get the bike it's in this back room of his run down ground level apartment, the guys can't get the door open because the roof is sagging so bad so they kick the door in! So he brings me the bike out and it's all there but he started taking it apart to work on it so all the plastic was off of it and somewhere along the way the land lord had thrown out the gas tank......so I made him take some money off and brought Her home, a few minutes on eBay and I have a tank. The bike has a ton of aftermarket parts on it. Still working on getting it running

Did you get the VIN checked, could be stolen.

Just 'cause they're meth heads doesn't mean they don't have their paperwork in order! Laughing Laughing Laughing

Just bustin' your balls. I'm glad that someone bought it who appreciates it. That will be a sweet bike when you're done.

Funny, I paid $350 on eBay for a used set of Matt Walker's plastics. And you got the whole bike for a few hundred more. Great deal for you!

Thank you for finally buying that thing..... it was clogging up the Michigan Motorcycles for Sale page on Facebook lol. It was around for so long I figured it was a scam, glad to see it was in fact real, and went to a good home!!!

Yeah I'm thinking a good refresh is in order don't want to change much. That plastic looks like it's in great shape though! Was this bike floating around that on that facebook page before? I jumped on it as soon as I saw it! Did the ole text him a picture of the money and I'm on my way thing and bam here it is

"what do you guys think"?

This guy thinks it sucks to be you, a sweet ride like that and you can't even ride the damn thing.

Snow all over the ground and bike didn't come with a chain.

Very clean, even kinda sexy, good times to had when the ground thaws. Congratulations cr294
