You are right it is a 1980 Police bike. They did not start using the P until the J series motor. This is a Police bike with a MKII motor. The early Police bikes were designated as C models the J motor Police bikes were CP models

Upon further review Otakar is correct. You are the purveyor of all Kawasaki knowledge. So, Tyler, what's the deal with this bike?

EDIT: 1980 C = Police bike
