WOW - That's a whole lot similar to my engine that Mr Orritt was displaying at Stafford this weekend - VERY proud of the work that Gez & Co did to get it up to scratch! :D

i know Kawasaki uk had a z1300 cutaway motor in the training centre in 1979 as i attended a course on the z1300 a1 + the guy in charge of training was mike coombs who later left Kawasaki + started his own dealership somewhere in the Midlands selling royal Enfield
