I bought NOS spokes for my H2 and it was like 75 dollars for both front and rear wheels. And as far as I can tell Kawasaki has used a lot of identical parts on different bike models. Looking at the front and rear rims, hubs, even the drum brake it is identical between the H2 and this KZ I have. I ought to just get them from the guy I got em from last time - midatlantic cycle in PA
