92 K1 $3500

Why try to sell as a non runner when a fuel pump is such an easy fix.? Raises a red flag for me.

yeah, a nice running K1 could easily go for twice that.  Wonder how long it's sat since it last ran.

Somewhat odd that the seat is showing wear, torn seam, with that very low mileage.

Seat looks like a Corbin, I've seen several tear there regardless of mileage.

seller doesn’t know he bought it as a non-runner and has sat for a long time so at minimum fuel pump battery tires the rest is a crapshoot

It's the mustard-ketchup K 1s that get me going.  The blue or black ones, and ones without graphics just seem......meh.
