Kawasaki Other description

This bike is a matching number bike, frame number Z1F-11144, and engine number Z1E 11 27. The remains of the frame tag are still there and it looks like the build date is April 197 . There is clear matching number title with this bike. It has a typical period sixteen rear wheel conversion, and when I got it it had an aftermarket header with the bike, which I pitched because it was pretty rusty. On the plus side this bike DOES have a double disk front brake setup. There are a few misc. parts missing from the bike, but not a lot. I think that 20yrs ago - before these machines became so valuable - someone borrowed a few of these parts for another bike. But whats here seems to be in attractive shape. Ive checked out the engine case amp; frame and see no damage or repairs. The only damage Ive found is a small chip in the fin near the #one cyl spark plug, and thats about it. The bike still seems to have over 90% of its original fasteners too.
