[[Category:Kawasaki motorcycles|J1]]
The '''Kawasaki J1M''' is a very rare [[motocross motorcycle]] from the B8M era.  Very few J1Ms are found in America, because in 1966 very few were even shipped over.  The 88cc two-stroke engine, with rotary valve and 4-speed transmission produced 11 hp @ 7,500 rpm.
