My buddy sent this pic to me.

He ran into this guy with a beautiful 75
in Naperville ,Ill

Besides the highway pegs and sissy bar it looks totally stock to me.

What a wheelie machine :woohoo:

Great looking bike !!
I had a 75 H2. Candy Red color. Put a sissy bar on it after a buddy of mine rolled off the back. Happily he wasnt hurt

Looks great, but that sissy bar has to go in the trash now. Back in the old days you'd see everything on a H2. I bought 2 1972s for $300 back in 1980. One a guy was killed on, the other had like 12" extended forks. Both original blue color 72s. Still have the original green 74 I've had for 33 yrs now. The H2 came out in 1972 Kawasaki touted it as "the ultimate touring bike". :laugh: Yea I want to tour on a two stoke that vibrates your fingers off in 20 miles. No fun touring on a smooth Honda CB750. I like the H2, always did, but they are not a great bike. Never was. They are definately different and cool to ride around on once in a while though.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

I was thinking the same thing, how long could the guy have owned it ?

Learned back in the seventy's that mufflers and shorts don't mix :pinch:
