The Kawasaki H1 Mach III was a two-stroke 500 cc sport bike made by Kawasaki from 1969 through to 1975. The Mach III appeared in the US in 1969 with a white sculpted fuel tank and blue racing stripe along the lower part of the tank, and special Dunlop K77 tires.
The engine was a three-cylinder two-stroke with a displacement of 499cc (30.5ci) and had Mikuni VM 28mm carburettors. In the US, the Mach III proved to be very popular. Motorcyclist magazine said the Mach's power-to-weight ratio was the best "ever produced in a motorcycle meant to sell to anyone who has the money to purchase it."
One of the very first off the Kawasaki production line, this lovely Kawasaki H1 Mach III has been restored to a good standard. Holding up well since completion it has resided as part of an enthusiast’s private collection. Not used much since the current vendor purchased it, it was running earlier this year but will still need the usual checks before placing back on the road. It comes complete with a current V5C.
