Yeah as it is Fient hearted...Skub wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 2:01 pm By fook,I loathe that overused term 'widowmaker'. You can hardley ever see an ad/vid for any Kawa triple without it being abused.
The original widowmaker was the 1969 Kawasaki H1,then the name migrated to the 1972 H2 750,from there to bikes like the 04 ZX10RC1 and the Suzook TLS. Some folk desire it like a badge of honour ffs.
'Widowmaker' and 'Not for the faint hearted' cause me to up my medication.
I dare you to ride a hondamatic/variomatic with no instruction.
