I am starting to collect older motorcycles and have a shopping list. The GT750 Suzuki waterbucket and the Kawasaki H1 500 are on it as roadbikes. Suzuki RG500 Mk.3 and Yamaha Tz750D already sourced. That Kawasaki is a wonderfully detailed and restored piece of kit
Although not spotted - it did come up when having an online chat/helping them with an issue
.
Anyway one of the ladies that works for us in the French office - her husband has restored just those bikes Kawasaki H1 500 and the waterbus....I will have to find them and post them up.
EDIT: Found them - sorry was not a waterbus....I think she said that was a friend of her husbands that had the bus.
First up a Kawasaki Z 1000 along with a Kawasaki 900 Z1B and the Kawasaki 250 SAMURAI
Next is the Kawasaki 500 H1E
Last is the bike he is working on currently Honda CB 750 K0

Is this not the bigger sister Renown? Looks a bit too long for a Mayflower. Not my kind of car but very well done.Originally Posted by bry3500
You would FALL off Coyote Man HE HE Jamie
Jamie- if it was a 1970-71 500 Mach 3 it would throw him, these were definitely more tractable.
Def a Mayflower. My Mum owned 2 of them.The hot rod has been seriously lengthened..
My family had one, towed a 12' caravan with it in the 50's, side valve and all!Def a Mayflower. My Mum owned 2 of them.
What happened when you got to a hill ? That sidevalve had a taste for head gaskets as I remember
Now THAT is a real bike. Standing quarter in 12.25 seconds-in 1970
From what I remember, never a problem, well it got there, but slowly. Inside the purpose built 12' caravan was an 11'6" yacht! Went pretty much all over NZ!

Wow . . . all those bikes are cool
Thats the one I need!
Found the ex-Trevor Discombe TZ750, now to try to entice the owner to part with it...
As my job has me on the road quite a bit I do get to see my share of things on the road. Here are a couple to start off.....
Check out his bonnet scoop
While we are on things being green...
Things being towed!!
This was going past my house...must have been a BYO BBQ
Not everyday you see a plane being towed
The comby is actually being towed by a tow truck
Was wondering why the traffic was going so slow - check out the tow rope between the first two cars
Is the 'wing' in pic #1 a plank of wood?!!!
Spotted this at the top of the Kaimais a couple of years ago - and it's not a replica!!
Best part of the picture is Sally from the cares movie on the door....Spotted this at the top of the Kaimais a couple of years ago - and it's not a replica!!
This stuff is great guys
$2,300 in '74. How much now?
My Ducati GT750 was $2,450 and the Z would walk away..... My 750 SS however..........
