the "number plates" don't really do anything for me.
Modified 1974 Kawasaki H2 Mach IV

its a 'bare bones' rebuild but clean. i agree the side plates are shit. and emgo filters. boo. but, current bit at 4k is reasonable for sure. will prob fetch.. 7500 or so. (my guess)
Wirges.
you typed that wrong.
:brownseat: weergus
those pipes -suck- so bad
All in all, I think it's pretty nice but doesn't move me; maybe I'm just a Yamaha guy. Having seen other Lossa builds, I'm surprised Jay signed off on those side panels. I guess the customer is always right.
I think it's an H1 frame with an H2 motor. The gas tank is H1.
Looks heavy AF, and those old school "lateral move" bolt on suspension mods just seems like a waste of time these days.
mike, you're right . that is an h1 w an h2 motor.
btw check out the stock plug wires. you can see the tag poking out on the RH one.
nah 74 H2 frame and fwd motor mount is a give away to it being H2.

The grasshopper.
@ scully. yup you are right. i didnt look at the vin and missed the engine mount. :whistle:
I am not sure what tank that is but it ain't a 74 H2 tank, it is too long. The 74 H2 tank is short and bulbous. It is either a late H1 tank or a 75 H2 tank. I like all of it except the side covers. I am thinking it will fetch at least 8 grand. I love mine as I have said before. There is nothing quite like the feeling of a hot rod H2 coming up on the pipe. Raw, unrefined and visceral. With all the mods mine has it handles and stops well too. But it spends most of the time setting and the Yamaha twins get rode much more because they are much easier to go fast on and much cheaper to fix.
Up to $5,400 with three days to go!
Interesting the reserve was not met at a highest bid of $8,477.
oh yeah, they got 5 figures in mind easy. :busey:
Oh yeah one of kind custom cafe and all that. Purely priceless but we'll let you have it if you must for say 14k. ok:whistle:

Not sure if the link I copy and pasted here works but it's for an auction that was started early in the morning yesterday and just ended this morning today. So whilst window shopping Ebay last night I came upon a certain numbers matching 1972 Kawasaki H2 750 in what looked like completely immaculate cherry/concours quality restoration. At least according to pics provided. The buy it now option price was you guessed it a whopping 22k and with three bids made several hours upon my discovering the auction last night they were already up to $12,700 with the reserve not met. Pretty sweet looking bike with what looked like the oem dual disk brake set up. I would've liked to have seen a pic of the bike with the seat up and seen just how complete it was, like if it had the three spark plugs and holder and tool kit and manual cause it really looked great like that. It was just an awesome A to Z restoration anyways, didn't feel like starting a whole nother thread about it but I thought of our talks here and thought I would just mention it. Someone with bookoo bucks definitely had to have it. Thing was just way too nice to even ride especially for the kinda money they wanted for it.
