    Funny you should ask----

    If you looked closely at the pics before the ad was removed, you'd have noticed that the tank is actually a 750rj tank ( which doesn't fit the bike to begin with, because someone didn't read my interchange forum and didn't relocate the horns..... but I digress)--- and they swapped out the standard shoulder bolt for a clip either the correct bolt!!! So.... YES, it does:)

    So is that 650 Seca Kawasaki green? Cuz most of the pictures show a silver bike. I want the silver bike, but the green one? Only if it's 500 bucks. Oh, it is. Hmm. I'll have to paint it black.

    Those other pics are bait. It's what the bike could be, not the one you get. that's the last pic of dirty bike.

    The silver bike has the same cracks in the saddle cover as the green one.
    My guess is that he bought it in silver and then painted it green (has a week work in it...)
