I remember thinking that the engine and frame guys at Kawasaki never bothered speaking to each other. With the H1 (and later with the H2, but more so,) it seems that the frame and brakes would have been perfect had the engine guys limited it to just a single cylinder!
Adding on the additional 2 cylinders made every ride an adventure, every turn an experience! Back then, Kawasaki had a habit of building bikes with the most powerful engines they could shoehorn into the smallest frame possible!
