"Widget" threw me off...I believe you meant Wirges. Those KH500 badges are odd on your '74 since they are of '76 vintage...? Unless you bought this bike direct from a dealer when new, my guess is someone replaced either the badges or the side covers themselves. Good luck on your sale...and your upcoming Triumph! |

Yes Wirges  Originally this was a Barn find, it had been sat 22 years, I did a restoration photo story on here last year and had some excellent support from members, I will miss the old gal but my passion has been and so I guess always will be racing, I am an instructor at mid Ohio track and others The Bike was Green when I first got it

The fork ears are what the headlights bolt to. Specifically where the ear mounts to the round tube that the forks slide thru. |
