I am and always have been a Kawasaki guy.
Ninja 1000R. Yoshimura Pipe, Lectron 48mm flat slides, and had the head shaved to make it 12.5:1 compression. Would do almost 180MPH with a 6’3”@190lbs on it, and still could turn on a dime.
Those were the days...
Great Bikes through the sixties and seventies the Japs rewrote the book though.My 1st bike was a 150 Honda Dream with those swooping fenders, wish I still had it.
