As far as I'm aware it's a Kuwi
Gussett hole is too small to be a drilled out hot heart
Frame is a T3 but that only the year

I can confirm mine as the real deal, had it since 1983, still got the receipt & owners handbook  :coolsmiley:

Joe mate , E.T's are all  T2  ???

and it is possible to make a Hot heart the exact same size gusset hole as a KYZ E.T  ,that's why there's so many  copies  :-\ , apart from the bad attempt ones  ;D

Its probably a Kuwahara KYZ

To be honest I'd have a do yourself ,, all you need is patience ,, it took me basically a weekend to do one, and £70 for quality  paint made into aerosols


Here's one I did about 3 years ago ( terrible photos  :( )

Wow all the hot heart jobs I've seen always look like a bigger hole to me
But I will take your word for it
So tell me why must they all be T2 stamped then as the number only dictates the year
I understand the first ones came alone in 82 but why not 83 or am I missing something
Were they not produced in 83 due to demand ?
Yep seen the kyz frames and they are identical in everyway from what I can see
Other then the forks they came with

Oh and great attemp it looks really sweet for a can job
I just don't have the time to do it myself and it would probably come out looking more like B.T than E.T  :LolLolLolLol:

Cheers
