Quote from: MRieck on July 24, 2023, 02:24:42 PM As far as twins go......the early Kawasaki W650 are really fun bikes. All they need is to shim the needle .020, turn out the mixture screw about 1 turn and go up one size on the main. Completely changes engine performance. They are a blast to ride.I would love to own a 73' Kawasaki W3/RS650 !

Here is the bike I was talking about.https://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/retro-review-2000-kawasaki-w650-from-archives/
So, I guess the fellow at Bonneville is actually riding a Kawasaki W1, W2 or W3 from the late 60s, 1970. 650 bike, really looks like a BSA. These later W650s capture the brit bike look pretty well also.
