About the Kawasaki KH500
Build a focused parts list for your 1976 KH500 restoration, from the carburetors to the front forks.
A KH500 restoration is easier to plan one assembly at a time. The featured carburetor kit, engine gasket set and fork oil seals each list KH500 1976, giving you specific starting points for fuel-system work, engine resealing and front-end service. Compare the contents with the work you intend to complete before dismantling.
Use the KH500-A8 identity when comparing H1 parts
Kawasaki identifies the 1976 model as KH500-A8. Keep that designation with your frame and engine records when consulting a parts diagram. Some diagrams and products also refer to the earlier H1 family; use the individual KH500 application to decide whether a component is suitable.

1976 KH500-A8
Use this complete model designation in the parts diagram and keep any replacement engine or front-end identity with your repair notes.
Carburetor overhaul
Compare the carburetor markings, kit contents and sold-as quantity before ordering. Plan the quantity around the carburetors being serviced.
Gaskets and seals
Use the engine gasket contents list for the joints you will open. Check crankshaft or other oil seals as separate items when required; a gasket-set title does not specify every seal in the engine.
