Not in the way that muscle car owners can. You can determine if the serial number and engine number fall into the model year for that model, but that's about it.
The decal on the steering head, assuming it is still there, can confirm date of manufacture.
Once you have the bike, posting some good pic can help folks here identify what you have bought.

Yep. My old 85 Honda XR250 had dual carbs. Actually worked really well...

Can check out info from zedder which could be helpful toward determining whether the bike at hand may have started life as a B1 or B2 or B3 or B4.

Click here > www.zedder.com/msg1.htm#Kawasaki
and scroll down to and click on any particular model for info details such as range of frame numbers, range of engine numbers, etc.

Good Fortune! :)
