Kawasaki H1B

I bought this bike on E Bay in 07 for $230 yup $230 .
Other than new crank bearings ,seals and Std rings that's about all she needed .
And reassembly .
It had 6,900 miles on it when put away in 1975 .
This year I had it licenced the same weekend as BikerDons Triple rally and the CVMG Annual Vintage Rally in Paris ONT Canada .
I have now 11,500 miles on it .
Love the bike!

Nice work!!! Bought an orange '72 H-1 in 1973 as my first motorcycle. A sick way to start. Smoked like a chimney. Screamed like a banshee. "Handled" like a bucking bronco. Easily blew off Harleys with more than twice the displacement. Used to show off by "kick starting" it with a flick of the hand. But mine only had one disc brake. Otherwise the same as this one. Does the double disc make it a "B" model?

@NCWharfRat

The dual disc was an option at the time and it still is a H1B

going on 20,000 miles now . still running great.

Drove one a long time ago. Kick in power, and lots of it. No steering or brakes though :)

Good to see the young riders starting to enjoy these Triples .

They were fun back then and still fun today .
