Falling Skies - bikes they use

In the season 2 premiere there is a scene where 2 characters roll in on a moto (about 37 minutes in) and it really looks to me to be a classic KZ - same rims and lower fork braces as my KZ1100.
Just some lolz, every 4 cylinder classic bike is, in my mind, a Kawi until I see otherwise. #blindedbythelight right?
I honestly don't know how fast I was going, officer; My speedo tops out at 85...

Gets me thinking; beside the old CHiPs, any other films/tv series that use the KZ? TRIVIA TIME!!

Wasn't that a Honda? I thought I read that somewhere.

I've heard it was a CB but no one can say for sure. It's a mystery.
You want a movie with Z1's and KZ's in it? Have a look at Z1: The Movie

Found this which states its a 1969 CB750. Not sure how they can tell the year.
