Saw this curious relic on another site, thought some here - might be interested to see it.

This is the LC Kawasaki triple race mill item, that sadly, never made it to the showroom as a production streetbike.
A fair few differences to the basic H2, as might be expected..

But BRG... your LC Yam also has reed valves, & maybe even YPVS, too.. L.O.L...

Looks cool as f@&$

"Curious Relic"

Are we talking about bike parts or forum members here?

Well BRG..., if the cap fits, & the stud pattern matches, bolt 'er up , eh fella..

FYI, a KR 750 was timed at 190mph+ at the IoM in Mick Grant's hands, almost 40 years ago,
& locally, Graeme Crosby got around Mt Panorama/Bathurst on one - in 2:13 odd - back in the day, too.

I know where you can get a set of Kawasaki 750/3 crankcases, maybe you could graft a YPVS top end on 'em?
