20:02 The Kawasaki triple's four in to one exhaust system certainly is unique! 🙄🤣🤣 WTF is the picture of the reed valves for? The H1 500 is the bike that earned the nickname "Widowmaker", not the H2 750.
As an owner and rider of many of the bikes featured, I would have enjoyed this video if not for so many mistakes in the information and images. Almost every bike, had some incorrect information. I appreciate the work that went into this, but a little more research could make it so much better.
Lots and lots of nonsense 13:58 Triumph Hurricane with eletrix start, Laverda instead of Kawa, Kawa triple with 4 into one and so on. Nice bikes though
The Yamaha XS11 was introduced in 1977 and was faster than most of these bikes topping 135 mph. The Honda CBX introduced in 1978 made a little more top end power, but lacked low end torque. The high and wide transverse 6 cylinder motor was a thing of beauty but all that weight up high ruined handling. All but a pro rider could launch the XS11 quicker through the quarter mile.
@@elemar5 Was your 250 triple stock? Looki8ng up period tests a 400F Honda was over 2 sec. quicker through the quarter mile and 20mph faster top speed than a KH250.
? The 350 was indeed a dog but the 400F was by far the best performing 350-400cc bike of that era. Period test from Cycle magazine showed it tested at a 14.71 sec. quarter mile and had a top speed of 103mph. No threat to a RD350 but only slightly behind a KH400 and faster than the rest of its 2-stroke competition.
@@richardwarsinske7064 My comment seems to have disappeared.! My bike was the model before the KH. 1975 S1C. Slightly faster and also expansions. 20mph faster! Wow a real rocketship then.
very bad ,,,like where this states the Kawasaki H2 had a " four into one exhaust system." wow. some people will put anything on here. not worthy of further comment.
Amazing job, keep doing it!👍🏼
Never realized the Kaw 750 triple had a 4 into 1 exhaust. Interesting.
It's a Laverda Jota not a kawasaki.
cheers mate, and so many other mistakes :(
amazing. thanks for sharing

Who ever tested a 400/4 at 110mph?
A touch over 100 was usual.
The RD350/400 was similar but got there a lot quicker.

wHOEVER PROGRAMMED THIS NARRATOR GOT eASY rIDER CONFUSED with Then Came Bronson
If you have something to say say it don't use some shit ai . I turned off after about 20 seconds
I think this bike had a six speed gear.
The Honda 400 F was one of the lamest ducks around, only topped by the 350 Four!
It was around the same performance as my 75 250 triple.
