c.1969 Kawasaki 500cc H1 Mach III Frame no. H1F-06560 Engine no. KAE 76611 Please kindly note that this motorbike will be available for viewing by prior appointment in Dortmund: please contact eva.lengler@bonhams.com for booking. 'Only the shotgun acceleration of a Kawasaki can make you feel that good, throttle screwed round as the corner opens up into the next bit of straight as you hit the apex, 'bars shimmying slightly as the front lightens under the power, back end flexing as the engine tries to pull the wheel sideways against all those G's forcing it into the road, oh boy!' – Bike magazine on the H1. From the Z1 to the ZX10R, Kawasaki has long enjoyed a reputation for building uncompromising - often outrageous - high performance motorcycles. However, the machine that started it all was not a four-stroke like the forgoing but a two-stroke – the awesome, legendary 'Mach III' (H1). Light weight combined with a peaky 60bhp and indifferent handling made the two-stroke triple an exciting machine to ride but one that nevertheless had the legs of just about everything under 750cc when launched in 1968. The H1 triple was regularly revised and updated, gaining a front disc brake, revised steering geometry and rubber engine mounts among other changes before production ceased in 1976, by which time it had become the KH500. This example of Kawasaki's legendary two-stroke triple comes with a State of Indiana Certificate of Title showing that it was registered there before being exported in 2010. The machine also comes with a file of German paperwork including a Fahrzeugbrief (registration document). The engine turns over. Offered with key Footnotes: Please kindly note that VAT at the prevailing german rate (currently 19%) will be added to the buyer's premium which will be invoiced on a VAT exclusive basis. If you are planning to export, please make the department aware. Lot to be sold without reserve.
