Kawasaki Other description

1973 Kawasaki F7 Orange Have you been looking for an original F7 Kawasaki, boy do I have a treat for you—down to its original trials tires and Reflectors!

I’ll bet this brings back memories for some of you guys out there. This is an all original bike, just like you may have seen it in 1973. You can tell that this bike didn’t see much off road use. Steel fenders were usually the first to go, but it still has its original fenders, even with the factory mud flap up front. Ever seen “brush chains?” They were a small chain that ran from the frame to the brake and shifter to stop weeds from jamming up that area. This bike still has them intact on both brake and shifter. It has its original speed and tachometer, the seat is very nice and it has it’s hard to find original factory luggage rack. Headlight and tail light work. The switches and wiring is original, and has not been altered. The gas tank has its original paint and striping. I had the inside professionally “red coated” by the well know Elizabeth Radiator, so no worries there. Kawasaki used a “rotary valve” arrangement for intake for its carburetion. You can ask anyone, this arrangement always generated a lot more horsepower per cc displacement. The rotary valve made this the horsepower king of the 175 enduros. This bike runs very strong, just watch the video this past weekend starting and riding it. Super powerful, and it runs smoothly at all rev ranges and shifts and brakes as it should.

It also had a very innovative front fork by Hatta. You can not only change the preload on the forks(original rubber caps still in place) you can also increase or decrease its wheelbase by moving the axle up or back. The rims with their heavy duty spokes are straight and without rust.


IMPORTANT TITLE INFORMATION I have the original title for this bike, it is signed but not notarized by the original owner. Check with your local Bureau of Motor Vehicles to see what that means in your state. The motorcycle can be seen by appointment before bidding. I have enclosed many pictures and I can take more by request. Please email me with questions before you bid. Sold as is where is with no warranty of any type. So if you bid, you buy, no crybabies.


Bid with confidence, I have a 100% rating on ebay and have a nationally known enthusiast web site which is classicjapanesemotorcycles

2011 Isle of Man TT Recap

Fri, 10 Jun 2011

The Isle of Man TT usually provides a lot of drama, and this years event was no different. John McGuinness, second on the all-time TT wins list, added two more wins to his resume to win the Joey Dunlop Trophy while MotoCzysz once again fell just short of taking the bounty for being the first electric motorcycle team to record a 100 mph lap on the Mountain Course. The 2011 Isle of Man TT also had its share of tragedy with three racing fatalities.

Do WSB bikes need fake headlights?

Mon, 02 Jul 2012

Next year's WSB bikes must carry fake headlight stickers to make them look like their road-going equivalents – and Kawasaki previewed the new look at yesterday's race at Aragon. The idea is to add to WSB's road bike links and to further distinguish the bikes from the latest breed of CRT MotoGP machines. However, it means adding meaningless stickers on a large and potentially valuable acreage of prime sponsorship space on the bike's nose, with much of the rest already taken up by the rider's number; not necessarily a good thing when money is already hard to find in international racing.
