Info on Kawasaki Full Suspension Mountain Bike
I found this online, I have never seen anything like it. About the only component I can identify are the Araya RM-20 rims. Rims place the bike late 80s. But crank look like a early to mid 90s.
Does anyone has any information about it?
Thanks

I cannot imagine anyone who values their life ever throwing a leg over that "bike"

And to top off the improvised engineering with the garage door spring attached to a cable where it can not act in a way to control the movement of the rear swing arm, there is a big bird poop on the seat. I'm guessing seagull.
What is going on below the chainstay?

The suspension pivots are held on by hose clamps.
I don't know what this thing is, but I'd bet that the Kawasaki sticker is not original - it may have been made by Kawasaki but I doubt they would admit it.

My favourite feature is the extra long bolt protruding out from the top 'suspension pivot'.
