Early exhausts? Looks like a strange Bitsa?

Re: 1972 KH500
JLomas had done a few set of pipes on 2 parts for later H1 years ago (at least one as I had seen a H1D with and had put a picture on the forum) is it one of these sets?

I suppose it must be an H1D frame, if I was an H1B it would have to have had considerable frame modification to fit the later tank, seat and tail units. An H1D with early exhausts I would think. Nice alloy rims and twin discs

Re: 1972 KH500
You can fit a later H1 tank onto a B frame with no frame mods! Just two lugs on the tank!
The tail hump can sit on brackets that push into the frame tubes where the grab rail goes. The seat fits straight on. The side panels are a bit trickier as one is an oil tank!
Heres my HIb from the 80s!
