Up for sale is my 1975 (Manufacture date of 11/74) Kawasaki H1 F 500 Mach III Triple cylinder 2 stroke. Clear Ohio title in hand. I am the second owner, and this bike has been in my possession since the early 80's. Originally Blue, it was Black when I got it. I have never laid this bike down. This bike is a head turner! A beautiful example of a 40 year old Triple. A STRONG running bike! Everything works as it should including brakes, gauges, lights, electronics, charging system, oil pump. EVERYTHING. ALL PARTS on this bike are either original stock or nos, EXCEPT for the following: mirrors, air filters, petcock, horn and tires/tubes. New Genuine Kawasaki (nos) parts include, but are not limited to, Gas Cap, Gas tank strap, 3 into 1 throttle cable, tack cable, clutch cable, speedometer cable, front and rear brake pads/shoes, front brake line, too many rubber parts to remember, wires, nuts and bolts here and there. Both the front brake master cylinder and caliper have been rebuilt. I sold Nos Kawasaki parts right here on ebay for awhile a few years back and sourced a lot of odds and ends for this bike during that time. Check out my 100% positive feedback and see for yourself. The Body Paint is not stock as you can tell, but is very nice. Jet Black with clear coat. All body parts are original and in excellent condition. Side covers have the original "500" badges. The tail piece even has the elusive "mole" trim piece that goes on the front edge. Gas tank has been creamed properly. All rubber frame dampers for tank are present. Frame is straight and solid with no damage, broken welds or alterations. Steering dampner is present and functional. All controls, buttons, switches and knobs are present and functional. All wiring is original, and complete. I did replace a few worn wires with Nos ones. All lights are original and functional, even the lights in the instrument cluster. All stock reflectors are in place. The original key, #911, fits the ignition, seat lock and steering lock, all of which work fine. Chrome is not perfect, this is a 40 year old bike after all. There is some slight pitting on the upper front shock tubes, but it is not low enough to have an effect on the seals. Front shocks/forks are straight and do not leak. Lower front shock tubes have been polished. Rear shocks are original and extremely nice. The Chrome rims both front and rear are beautiful. All spokes are clean, straight and dialed in. All the fins are on the engine, none are broken off. All engine covers and plates have been polished. The engine is original to this bike, bone stock and has never been bored. Stock exhaust pipes with stock baffles in place. Really nice Chrome on the pipes with a little spot of acid stain on left pipe below the battery and a little road rash on the outside right pipe. (look at the pics!) Happened before I had it. Even comes with the spare spark plug holder under the seat. The seat is in fantastic condition, soft and supple, no rips or tears, no rust on the pan, all dampers in place, caution and safety checklist stickers in place and the document door is intact. I have not ridden this since last year so it is a little dusty and will probably need the carbs cleaned. The battery is a few years old but is fine and will charge up in no time. Usually starts on the first or second kick. This bike has always been kept in a garage. Is this bike perfect? No. It is 40 years old and shows it in a few places. I think she wears it well. This bike looks great, rides even better and sounds frikkin awesome! In my opinion anyway. But you be the judge. Check out the pics. PLEASE NOTE: I do still have the original air filter canister and mounting bolt (missing the snorkel that goes on top) with air filter and 3 into 1 rubber boot with 2 clamps (missing 1 clamp), the original side stand with spring and mounting bolt, the original horn (not working) and the original petcock (not working). Check out the last picture. I will include any or all of these items with the sale of this motorcycle if you should want them. Just let me know.
