Unidentified Kawasaki

[Captain Carrot]

I bought this thing for $40 and I don't know what model it is. I don't think it is a ke100. It could be a kd80 but I don't know why it has a speedometer. It was a dual sport at one point. It could also be a G5 because the paint matches, but the pipe is not right. Anyone have any ideas?

What size wheels does it have?

Are there any indications of motor size stamped at the base of the cylinder?

The pipe looks like a 74-76 KD100, but the tank does not match, and I think those little KD 100's had small wheels.

Does the pipe look complete, or did their used to be a stinger attached.

Here is a '76 KD100M-1.

Note the similarities in the pipe and the countershaft cover. Front brake looks similar, too.

Did yours come with a seat? If so, does it fit with that tank?

Hey Dirt Bike Dave thanks for your replies. Here are some answers.

1. What size wheels does it have? I do not know at the moment it is in shop class. I will let you know tomorrow.

2. Are there any indications of motor size stamped at the base of the cylinder? I don't know again I can not recall seeing one but I was not looking for a stamp.

3.Does the pipe look complete, or did their used to be a stinger attached? There is a stinger.

4. Did yours come with a seat? If so, does it fit with that tank? It came with the foam but not the pan. I will check again tomorrow.

Do you know why it would have a speedo?

Thanks for your replies again.

I had a 77 KM100. It had a speedo and lights. Looked just like that but was blue.

Here is a pic of a ratty '76 KM100, with speedo.

Looks like the same bike as the OP's, except for tank color.

Yup it is a km. It a 90 though. Even though its a 1975 it still runs good. Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know if a seat, oil tank and air filter assembly will fit from a kd80? Will those parts fit from any other bikes from that era?

$ 40 Only?

I bought this thing for $40 and I don't know what model it is. I don't think it is a ke100. It could be a kd80 but I don't know why it has a speedometer. It was a dual sport at one point. It could also be a G5 because the paint matches, but the pipe is not right. Anyone have any ideas?

Is it real or you make us fool? How can be possible that any fellow could sell their bike @ only 40 $?

 

[Captain Carrot]

It is for real. The reason it was $40 is beacuse it is in rough shape and it had a few things like the carb needed to be cleaned and a cable stop needed to be made.
