Kawasaki Sports Center was the low bidder, however, they were disqualified for the following reasons. 1. Transmission - Kawasaki's final drive is a chain instead of belt driven as specified. This is a maintenance requirement and it is felt by Fleet Services that a chain drive is more expensive to maintain. 2. Frame and Saddle - Floating floorboards and spring mounted saddles were specified for safety and comfort for the driver. The Kawasaki doesn't offer either.
