This is a great bike. Rides great. Lots of power. Bike looks mean and stands out. People always ask what it is. I have never seen another on the road since I've owned it. Parts are still easy to find as it shares the same motor with other bikes. Good condition - don't expect a show bike though, it is almost 30 years old. 
Bike is mostly original. Directional lights have been changed to bullet style aluminum units. Original mirrors replaced with bar ends. Sissy bar has been removed and license plate has been moved to rear of bike. You can't tell where the sissy bar used to be. I think it looks better this way.
Issues: 
Has some chips and scratches.
Air box covers have cracks. 
One seam on seat has separated. I stitched back together, but would look better if done by a professional.
It does not have the return cable on the throttle. Never had it since I've owned it and I haven't missed it.
Thanks for looking!
Background on the Eliminator:
Introduced in xxxx, and only produced for 2 years. It was produced as the ZL900 A1 Eliminator in xxxx and the ZL900 A2 in xxxx, the ZL900 evolved from the Kawasaki GPZ900R. The ZL900 was designed to evoke images of the wildly successful Z1 drag bikes, with a bobbed rear fender, short travel fork, large rear tire, fat chromed mufflers, a small fuel tank and low straight handlebars. The ZL900 engine was a transplanted and slightly modified version of the liquid-cooled Inline 4 introduced in the xxxx Kawasaki ZX900 Ninja. Kawasaki used smaller 32 mm carburetors (the ZX900 used 34 mm), different timing and camshafts with less duration. This gave the engine a different personality, trading the Ninja's high-end power for low-end and mid-range performance that was more suitable for a cruiser. At the time, the ZL900 was the only bike in its segment using an Inline-four powerplant instead of a V4 configuration. These bikes were produced by Kawasaki in Lincoln, Nebraska for the American market.
