H1B

Post by buckosbikes »

Hi all. Just joined the club. I've just bought a H1b which had been sitting in a shed for years. Have had it running, after checking the bores and cleaning out the carbs. After several kicks it ran and sounded good. The previous owner told me he thought it was sold from baycover in lowestoft when new. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the club.

Possibly sold from Lowestoft Kawasaki, but not Baycover. Peter Smith whok ran Lowestoft Kawasaki opened his own shop where Baycover is now in 1978 ish. He went into partnership with Terry who owned all the triples in Baycover.

I originally owned one of the last H2C,s that came out of Kawasakii Lowestoft that was KRT 903 P.

NICE BIKE and great find Thumbs Up

Thanks for the replies. I'm finishing off my gpz900 first before i make a start on it. I'm not doing a full nut and bolt resto on it but still want it to look nice. No doubt i'll be asking for advice and parts as i go on.
Thanks again
