SUMMARY
A beautifully restored, 1970s two-stroke triple imported from world-renowned Kawasaki specialist Rick Brett. Finished in the less common 1970 colour of Peacock Grey, it would be fair to describe the bike as immaculate.
DESCRIPTION
- From the Z1 to the ZX10R, Kawasaki has long enjoyed a reputation for building uncompromising - often outrageous - high performance motorcycles
- However, the machine that started it all was not a four-stroke like the forgoing but a two-stroke – the awesome, legendary 'Mach III' (H1)
- A light weight combined with a 'toppy' 60bhp and 'unusual' handling made the two-stroke triple an exciting machine to ride but one that was quicker than just about anything else under 750cc
- Motivation is provided by a 498cc, two-stroke, air-cooled, inline triple producing 60bhp and 42 ft-lb of torque
- Finished in Peacock Grey, this example has been beautifully restored by Kawasaki specialist Rick Brett and has covered only 86 miles since then
- Supplied with a current V5, owners book, tool kit, Dating Certificate, restoration paperwork, MOT history and a parts manual
