Kawasaki Racers
By Ian Falloon. As the smallest of the Japanese motorcycle manufacturers, Kawasaki has often followed an independent racing path. Against the odds, Kawasaki persevered with tow-stroke triples during the 1970s, and pioneered a successful two-stroke tandem-twin. Dave Simmonds's 125cc World Championship in 1969 provided the impetus for Kawasaki to engage in more serious road racing. As a result, Kawasaki produced some of the most exciting and charismatic racing machines ever in the H1-R, H2-R and KR750.Later its world-beating KR250 and 350 won a multitude of World Championships. At the same time Kawasaki won countess Endurance and Superbike championships with its four-cylinder four-strokes. These continue through until the present day and remain a force in World Superbike. Here is the story of Kawasaki's spectacular two- and four-stroke road racers, and the men who rode them. Hardcover, 160pg
