Ok, I've bought a project, rose tinted glasses I suppose but it was cheap!

Think this might be an '82 model but any info would help.
Engine no. Kh1-kz750ne020351 (shaft drive, oil cooler, 4 cylinder)
Frame no. Kz750r003901 18' rear wheel, 19' front.

According to CycleChaos, that engine number indicates a 1983 Spector. However, a twelve-digit vin would likely be from the 1970s.

That frame number is rather curious. According to what I have found, the earliest 750s had an IID number beginning with H2. The early four stroke twins were KZ750B....... The newer (post-1982) have a 17 digit number beginning with JKA......

Beats me. Maybe a non-U. S. model.

Apologies, the bikes situated in UK, The Vin is situated on the headstock, pretty clear not altered just slightly worn, can provide photos but I believe it's a genuine frame / vin
