Hey Norm. Great job.Looks like that rear hub is a late model or KZ.

Hey Norm. Great job.Looks like that rear hub is a late model or KZ. Brad Brad, your right. I believe it is late model H2 or Z1. I also have the late model cush drive rubbers that fit with the holes offset and a brake hub that is also late model with the wear indicator Dave

Hey Norm I am the same.I prefer something nice you can use day to day.Once you get to much time & money into a bike
you don't want to use it.

Dave it was great to have you visit.Thanks for coming out, and giving us the work.Those pipes will be a nice touch on your bike.They are "originals". We blasted them clean down to the bare metal.The finish on them now is far better than what they originally came with.We are going to start working on the body parts soon and also doing another set for Eric's 72 H2 750.One set Candy Purple, another set Candy blue and then also the Candy Gold.Keep up the good work on your project Dave.It is going to be a great bike !! Perhaps it will be ready for our group ride out to the vintage bike show in Ormstown this summer !!

I have been going through a good learning experience on H2 transmissions in the past month. The 1st and 5th gears on the output shaft I had planned to use are too worn and it would not make sense to use them. A solution is underway ... In the meantime I have had some opportunity to examine everything a bit closer and I have a question on shift drum chamfering for all you transmission builders. I have one shift drum with no chamfering and another that has had significant chambering around the holes and also the shift fork tracks. I kinda have both extremes here ... none and all! What is the typical approach you like to use for chamfering shift drums? Thanks for your advice. Dave

In the factory service manual there should be a pin to slot clearance spec. I imagine the one with the large chamfering is going to be out of spec. I personally have never chamfered a shift drum

I personally have never chamfered a shift drum Thanks sharing your experience Curtis. I checked the Kawasaki service manual but I did not find a clearance spec for the pin to slot. There is a spec for shifter fork clearance with the gears. I should check as the chamfering of the slots may have increased it.
