Kawasaki Racers
One of the worlds foremost motorcycle historians, Ian Falloon is the author of twenty books on motorcycles, including ten on Ducati. These titles include the best-selling Ducati Story, and Ducati Twins Restoration Guide. As an owner of several Ducati 750s since 1973 he has a particular enthusiasm for this model, still owning the 750 Super Sport he bought back in the 1970s. Ian Falloon trained as a symphony orchestra oboist before a serious motorcycle accident forced a change in profession. Now a freelance contributor to a number of motorcycle magazines around the world.
This volume tells the story of Kawasaki's involvement in road racing motorcycles from 1965 to the present day. As a company dominated by engineers, the will to race has always been there, but with motorcycles only representing a small part of a much larger conglomerate, economic circumstances have often dictated involvement, resulting in the company's racing efforts being characterized by inconsistency. However, Kawasaki has achieved some extraordinary results.
