The F9 Bighorn was a 350 cc two-stroke single built as a dual-purpose machine for the early 1970s, with a 21-inch front wheel and 216 mm of ground clearance for rough going. Kawasaki produced it from 1972 to 1975, and it replaced the earlier F5 Bighorn of 1970 - 1971. Its appeal lay in simple, light off-road-capable transport rather than outright speed.
