To sum up: It was a runner, engine started easily and sounded ok, and as I remember it, the box was OK, Front brake was horrible (won't be for long now), but maybe it's a bit rose-tinted. 12,5 years now after all. Everyone will notice that the rear shocks are Hagon, rear rim a non-original, but nice Borrani. Rear footrest are non original. I missed that the Tacho was from a 250 S1 or maybe an A7. The original mechanical steering damper are missing and so are the steering lock. Exhaust pipes are nice, no scratches or dents and chrome is good, as the rest of chrome in general. Original fenders in very good condition, original paintwork, chainguard, airbox, levers and so on. Some history was known. Kick start lever has been replaced with one from a H2 on these pics. Seat has been re-conditioned. Let's start to take it apart, and see what shows up ... |

The flat bars are not genuine Kawasaki, either....... (Had a new one in '70, brings back memories.) In Australia you could by a points OR CDI version, there was something like $50 difference in price, at the time. |
