I just posted this "For Sale" over on my scooter club forum, but i figured i'd post it here, too, as there was decent interest a few months ago when i sold that other bike.
here's the add:
I've got another bike i'm considering buying, which leaves me needing to thin out my flock a little bit. You all remember i bought that kitted out PK125 from Denver a couple months ago. I haven't touched it since i got it home, due to the fact that the exhaust can needs to be repacked to deaden the noise to some extent and i've just been too busy or lazy to do it yet. I've ridden up and down the road on it, and though it's a sweet ride it's the bike that i probably would ride the LEAST due to the fact i'm a big dude and i look stupid on it.
If you're looking for a smallframe, this is the best one you're going to find for a number of reasons :
1) 12 volt electrics... REALLY bright lights...that includes nice visible turn signal indicators.
2) Non battery, so you don't have to worry about rectifiers or recharging.
3) On the PK the headset splits in half like on a P200, so cable replacement is easy.
4) It has a glovebox in font ( unlike any pre-'80 smallframe ) and the standard one under the seat. The battery compartment on the non-engine side has been hollowed out to make room for the enormous racing pipe .... a brand new looking JL pipe ( which go for $400-450 ).
5) The engine was just rebuilt by ASC, with 136cc malossi kit, full circle crank, 25mm del orto carb, reed block kit, lightened flywheel.
6) The suspension on this bike is phenomenal. It rides smoothly and brakes like a dream - no front end dive. The PK had a really advanced front drum brake and it's really apparent when you are used to the older style brakes and fork. It has much better tracking and ride to it.
7) Rececntly rebuilt engine by ASC, kitted with Malossi 136cc, full circle crank, lightened flywheel, etc. The engine is incredibly fast. ( whoops i wrote this 2x. Oh well, it's important )
8) Original paint ...and in good shape, too. The only part that doesn't look original is the engine side door. Likely ( like with all smallframes ) the door probably fell off and got run over in traffic, so this one is a replacement.
9) The keys are all there - the column lock is also a wired on / off kill switch, and there's keys for the locking sidepanels and the glovebox.
10) Unlike most smallframes, this thing shifts like butter.
The only things that NEED to be done to it, are recover the seat and repack the exhaust can. (with $10 of wadding) If the exhaust is still too loud for y ou then go sell the pipe for 350 bucks on scooterbbs and chelsea has the original stock PK exhaust for $45. The bulb in the brakelight needs replaced as well.
Let me know if you're interested. I don't really want to sell it as the PK is pretty rare, ....in that they never sold them in the states. But with my Lambretta on it's way, and my GS almost finished i suspect it's probably the bike i'd ride the least.
