Hey that looks like the weapon out of the movie "Krull". I bet if you stencil HD on it you can double its value.

And a 5-bolt rotor...

my mistake on the rotors. :huh: i have a 10' rotor. so the calipers will fit and i need 2 matching rotors now. 
that does look like the weapon from "krull". is there a thickness difference between single and dual rotors?
thanks.

Those are definately from an 80's+ era Kawi, and look identical (minus the dust/grunge/fading) to the front calipers on my '84 ZN700 and my wifes '96 VN750 Vulcan.
In fact, both of our bikes use the exact same brake pads, some I'm sure they're probably the same calipers.
Kawi used those calipers on the VN750 Vulcan all the way through '07, which is the last year they offered that model (here in the U.S. at least).
