Hello all, I'm new to the Kawasaki H1 but not to bikes. I have had many bikes and currently have many in my stable. I just acquired a 1971 H1 and it has a front disc brake, also has a 69/70 tank on it, did they have a disc in 1971, and does anyone need a decent 69/70 tank? Has some rust on outside but not much inside.

71's had a drum. It was a common switch back in the day to put a 72 front end with disc on the older ones.

Probably a good idea to double check the vin numbers before getting rid of that tank.

Well, i was originally thinking restore. I've checked the vin# and the block and frame are 71. So i guess the person had added a newer front end with newer fender and also changed the rear to the newer style cowl(with a really crappy weld on the frame. So I'm pretty sure this one will become a project of newer suspension and street fighter/cafe look. I also have a gt550 triple which i'm working on at the moment. Does anyone know of crank rebuilders near to the kootenays of bc?

Welcome to the board Jaycox. We're slowly getting a western faction developing here... There are a couple or three of us here in Winnipeg, Alberta has a few members and now BC seems to be picking up the pace. Don't know if there are any SK members yet. We'll have to be looking at a KTC Western Rally soon.  Cheers, Neil |
