Different bike

[copyman]

I saw this for sale and thought it was really nice. Not sure if going to buy it. I like all original different vintage bikes but usually only buy with Tecumseh engines that I'm familiar with . Assuming that's 2 cycle motor?

I did some giggling and found a site talking about them. Made between 1969 to 1971 by Kawasaki they came with 2 different engines. It looks like yours has the KT-30 2-stroke as the other had a 4-stroke. The 2 stroke was apparently only made 1 year and had 400 units made in total.

That is cool !

I've never seen the 2 stroke version !

 

[Lizardking]

That looks clean.. DO IT!!!

Cool bike but not "Strictly US Vintage", obviously.

Rare bike but I doubt it's worth more than $3k. If it's priced under $1k, I'd say go for it.

Yes, the Kawasaki Coyote was manufactured by Kawasaki...

Stop giggling, minibikes are serious subject matter.

Thanks for the info. I passed on it. Just couldn't bring myself to buying a bike with 2 cycle engine. Plus after reading how parts are hard to get, etc I figured it wasn't worth it. I checked back on FB and it was sold so someone else got a good buy at $800

Cool bike but not "Strictly US Vintage".

For my part, I’d be happy to title the forum “Strictly Vintage”, as I think age is more pertinent than the specific origin. It’s not like the forum would be overrun with import content, as they’re usually encountered less often. Then we’ve got the matter of “blended” US-branded minis with imported engines, etc.

I disagree….foreign bikes sound have a foreign category…period….

 

[sparkwizard]

Do American bikes with Asian engines fit into any of these categories?

 

[Skipp]

I’d say mini bike discussion…but that just my opinion….US is US….period…not blended…

 

[Skipp]

Maybe a category called “harbor freight”

 

[sparkwizard]

And a Hodaka powered Bonanza is an American classic.

Makes sense to me.

Now there’s a good question….as granny always said what’s good for the goose is good for the gander….so probably foreign

I triggered Skipp, lol…

I’ve been looking for a picture I have somewhere, where my buddy put a Honda 750 motor on an electraglide….shameful!! But that’s just mark…
