Talking Should I grab this bike???

A friend of mine has a Kawasaki EX500 he's selling for $200. It has a clean title and body but needs a motor. I found one at a salvage yard for $400. I was curious to see if anyone has one of these? Would you recommend one? I was more or less interested in it just to throw it around and stunt it, if they can be... I put a 96' 900RR on layaway (how ghetto) till next spring cuz I don't have all the loot now and the seasons almost over (I live on Cape Cod). But I figured I could have a new motor in the EX by the end of next week and beating the crap outta it. Anybody stunting one? Can it be done? I figure worst case it's a great track bike, right? Feedback please... Thanks...

Who the hell would do that to a EX500????






If you want something cheap to throw around....go for it. Its a fun bike. Dont expect to learn stoppies on it though. Highway wheelies...ummmm..no. Tank Christ....can be done. Nags...to bad no Special K Wheelie Pics.
