They really didn’t have to go to that much trouble to make a BSA Bantam undesirable.

Kawasaki never made a KH350. If it's a 350 engine,then it's an S2.

Not that any of that helps the bike....

Are bikes like this film props? Or is there some people out there that build these thinking they are an improvement or a customised dream version of whatever it was?

At first glance, not too bad.
Check the description and the pics of the motor!
