Wonder what it went for back then???

If you buy a set of bare cases from Kawasaki, they don't come with any numbers at all!!!

I bought some closeout motors from Kawasaki back in 1981 or '82 and they came with numbers.

Kawa sold a bunch of complete H2 750, KZ900, KZ1000 motors for 500 BUCKS EACH!!!!

I bought a bunch of them just for the parts. Dealer cost on just a crankshaft was 225 bucks back then!!!
1972 H2 750 Cafe Racer built in 1974.
1976 KH400 Production Road Racer.
1979 Kz1000 MK. II Old AMA/WERA Superbike.
1986 RG500G 2 stroke terror.
1986 GSXR750RG The one with the clutch that rattles!

Up in the hills near Prescott, Az.

It looks like a spoof on the "Vetter" superbike from back in the day. Wasn't there a Vetter bike with the same paint scheme?

The Kaw List:
Current: 79 KZ1000 A3 MKII, 78 KZ1000 A2, 78 KZ1000 Z1-R, 78 KZ650 SR, 80 KE175
Former: 03 KLX400SR, 99 ZRX1000, 82 KZ750 LTD, 80 KZ1000 A4 MKII, 80 KZ1000 LTD, 78 KZ1000 A2, 74 H-2 750 Triple, 78 KL250
