One for the Kawasaki crowd

I know a few members are into bikes, so here go's.

I purchased this from the original owner 10 years ago, hasn't had a tag on it since '81.......10,075 miles. Pulled it out of storage and going to clean it up, thinking of selling it off to finance a truck build........not much into bikes.
I haven't done much research on it..... '73 H2 2-stroke... is about all I know about it. A couple years ago I cleaned the carbs, aired up the tires and flushed the braking system and it fired right up. Had to put it in deep storage(semi trailer) cause coming home from the bar at midnight and taking a thrill ride was getting to be a habit.
Hasn't had a wet rag on it in years, been under a tarp in dry storage, this thing is like a time capsule from the 70's.

Is it worth anything??????

You guys have GOT to be kidding me !! that thing is a rocket!! I was into 2 strokes big time, that thing has triple tuned pipes, could be bassani's not sure is it a 500 or 750?? the 750's used to be able to pull 10's easy back in the day, when the 900's first came out those 750's gave them a run, for awhile anyway, the 750 honda's were toast.
I had a 550 Suzuki triple with black tuned basani's and wiesco pistons ported and polished, back in the day if you had a 2 stoke DG was THE performance company they made everything for 2 strokes, THAT is the reason I now have my duster.... almost killed myself on it sold it and bought my duster... that thing has gotta be worth big bucks, make sure you do what others have said get that old oil OUT get some KLOTZ or Amsoil 2 stroke oil, Klotz is best IMO. Get the highest octane gas you can get too. we used to use airplane fuel in ours.
