I emailed him Friday morning the day after he listed it, he called me on Saturday morning. he said I was the first email he got. and it was first come first serve. and he wasn't going to respond to any other emails
I was surprised I was first.
here is an update on the progress
pressure washed it and got the carbs off and cleaned, changed the oil and filter
drained the old gas out.
I am waiting on a return throttle cable now.

After the kid finely got his ATV out of my way I am starting to get some work done on my $400.00 Voyager.
I have the Carburetors rebuilt and synchronized, engine and skins painted.
Here's a little preview.

Very Kawasaki looking

Actually I like the originality of the color; reminds me of a Ninja. If you put it in a show be sure to have some before and after pictures so everyone can appreciate the work that went into it.

Looking good, I seem to like the color the more I look at it. Are you going to add decals or paint a two tone scheme, or just leave it the one color green? Either way its looking great and seems to be well worth the 400 dollar investment.

I am going to put black Kawasaki decals on the front where the emblems would be only they are 13" long and I found black Voyager decals for the side panels.
on the top of the trunk lid I am putting an 8" wide Kawasaki "K". no rack or speakers I have a spoiler for it
I need to buff the paint first.

Looks like a GL1500 wing. They are what most people use if putting a spoiler on a Voyager XII.

Chris is probably right, It was on a trunk I bought on Ebay
There was a rack and speakers on the lid that had spacers under it that raised it about 1".
Keep that in mind if you put one on and keep the rack
I went for a cleaner look and left the rack off and closed up the holes.

Spoiler looks to be off a 1500 Goldwing SE, and yes they bolt on.

They bolt on with 4 bolts plus there is a hole needed for the wire to the light.
That is why I used the trunk lid it was on the holes were already there .
Looks like someone drilled them with a regular drill bit I would recommend using A step drill bit they don't grab like a regular drill bit witch could crack the plastic.
