Kawasaki H1 500 F Mach III description
1974 Kawasaki H1 F in amazing, fairly original condition. 7010 original miles! Starts easy, runs great, shifts through all the gears easy with a strong clutch.
Purchased from the original owner by a collector quite recently and now offered for sale. The bike had been stored indoors for some 24 years. Always a California bike, it resided unused in the high desert area of the Lancaster/Bakersfield metropolis. Apart from the notations above concerning damaged or missing parts the bike is pretty much all there and rides well. It still had some 24 year old gas in the tank but despite this the carb bowls look like new. Inside the gas tank are signs of light rust and some old gas residue. Most of this cleaned up with a single over night treatment of 'Evapo Rust'. An amazing product. An inner coating of the gas tank would probably be advisable if the bike were intended for long term use. Plugs were changed, oils were renewed and she fires right up using a remote gas tank containing a 'safety first' pre-mix of 80:1. The oil injector pump works well though. Bike idles happily, if a little off kilter due to the one missing baffle. Runs strong and sounds as good as these bikes always did. Amazing machines. As noted above, the title was lost long ago by the original owner. The bike is out of the CA DMV (Department of Motor Vehicle) system so should be a straight forward process to re-title in the new owners name. I have a bill of sale signed by the original owner to facilitate that process. I apoligize in advance as I may not be able to reply to questions from the afternoon of Tuesday June 14th until the morning of Saturday June 18th. I'll be on a trip to an area that has no cell service. That's the reason I chose to make this a 10 day auction. Thank you. |

2023 Kawasaki KX450SR Special Racer - First Look
Tue, 04 Oct 2022Showa me the money I was all Pavlov dogging when I read that the KX450SR “features elite-level racing components, special tuning and design elements inspired by the Monster Energy Kawasaki race team,” only to suffer slight cotton mouth when I learned that consists of nothing more than new SHOWA suspension components front and rear. I mean, obviously great suspension is critical to motorcycles that leap 40 feet into the air, but I felt like I was led to believe there’d be more. In fact, the rest of the 2022 package was already so blinged out, there wasn’t much more Kawasaki could add.
