Yes, it came from the factory with it. Am I giving away my age?

Those old king cats sell for more than twice the price of the newer ones!
That 4 banger must rip on the top end? At a 198cc ea, I bet those cyl. loved that 100+ octane leaded fuel! Where those 2 into 1 or singles all the way?

I was already quoting Ida's post when I read yours Owen. haha I got to ride one of each a few years ago, on a race track.........did not corner at all like the '78 250cc Super Mod I rode right after. haha Super cool units though, glad I got the chance to ride one, not too many guys born after the production of these get to ride em. Very cool.

I never stopped shakin'.............
Mine was a factory mod. Just over a hundred HP. No recoil, just wind a rope around a pulley. It really scared the natives. The 797 Blizzard was our only competition.
PS. The original was called King Kat the '04 thu '06 called King Cat.

I am old enough to have seen them new, but I don't remember them. I do remember seeing the big Skidoo run and they were impressive. Now I feel really old, LOL.
Too bad Kawasaki didn't put those engines in a H2, Call it an H3 and it would really give you something to hang onto! Forget about cornering, The H2's were a bummer at that along with the H1's

whoa, old enough that I remember beating the three cylinder KK on my brothers
borrowed 73.5 Suzuki twin factory chambered 440 fury in a annual local heads up hill climb competition(Alpine Wy) in about 1974.
I was 14, weighed about 100#s in race gear- lightning bolt helmet, jock strap(optional) and my one piece coast to coast sno-suit.
He was a three hundy plus old back of the school bus bully on the KK in cover-alls.
I beat his stop watch time by about 1.5 sec.
From that day till he died (semi-truck/boat accident)he would invite me out to the lake when his modified flat bottom would go on the Palisades lake runs.
My bro still has that old Suzuk..
