He probably blew the motor and stuck the DOHC in there?

But why all the Z1 parts?? Best of both worlds mentality?

Once you get by the fact that a K0 has been raped  :'(, it appears to be a nice job.  ;)

I like it! Obviously well done. I've got a thing for odd engine swaps, I've got a Yamaha YZ250 dirtbike with a KZ550 engine in it, It's a handful to say the least.

Wonder what the Z1 fans think of it? It's either the best of both bikes or.....not.

I was thinking it was a later model DOHC Honda?

You'd use the kawasaki wiring harness and electricals to avoid the nightmare kludge of connecting the Z1 motor to the Honda wiring. The engine is the heart of the bike, the rest - lights, horn and all - is just accessories.
Cool project, anyway.
Now how about a Hercules wankel engine in a featherbed frame?
