Even to antiquated for Ninjas

I said no to a free bike... I know, I know, but I checked and no, I haven't got a fever and I seem to be slurring only as much as usual.

A 1991 Kawasaki Voyager xii, Winnebago, Garbage Wagon, Full Dresser, whatever you wanna call it, presented itself to me. A luxury 2 wheelin' automobile to be sure, but it needed an engine rebuild. Two cylinders failed the leak down (one more on it's way), one at almost 30% low. Yikes. Can you say "time to bore"? Although it would have been fun to cruise around on for a bit, I turned it down leaving enough space in the backyard this summer for at least 2 or 3 more projects that will reap greater rewards than a mid-90's bagger with 120,000 kms. So if you always wanted to know what Ninja's limit was for stray dogs, well, looks like this is it.
