Can anyone confirm the colour of the reflectors on the tailpiece?

Red or orange?

Are they the same for different markets (I'm in Australia)?

Assuming '72 H2, RED! (You can still get them new, I think.)

Interesting - red looks way better.


Interesting in those old ads, the riders always wear horse boots.

The OP is in Australia, so we have red reflectors on the tail piece, so we can ride on the left side of the road........ :lol:

How are you, JP? We were in Paris last November for a few days, I saw a '70 T500 Suzuki in the middle of Paris, (Rue Monge), but no white H1's! :thumbup:

Rue Monge, I didn't go on this street since a long time.
But was not that far and if anybody see in Paris a Kawa triple parked close to a 1973 Z1 green and yellow this is one of my bike (the triple) and my office is very close (the Z1 is ly office partner's bike) usually the building behind the bike. :mrgreen:
Am fine by the way but very busy; don't beleive guys who say more senior you're in your job, less you work, il's just the opposite :D
