Meg White and the Kawasaki H1 Triple

Here is a rare Kawasaki H1 brochure with Meg White of the White Stripes as the model.

Kawasaki Versus Honda

Back in 1970, Kawasaki had the nuts and the ability to call out Honda on the carpet in regards to drag racing performance. But, who the hell was Kawi kidding selling the 500 triple 2-stroke as having " ... smooth steady rpm's purring through the engine power bank." Surging and a light-switch power band I guess would not appeal to the CB750 riders.

Day 2 Two Stroke Oil Musings

What in the heck was the Marketing Department of this motorcycle 2-Stroke oil supplier thinking when they named this stuff? ANALube? But hey, at least they trademarked it.
