When I was a teen some local boys used to have Kawasaki 900's. Couple of lads came to grief on them getting the speed wobbles. Their worth heaps now in good condition.

Banjo68 if your old man's into Nortons, see if he remembers the name Fred Lewin, a Norton addict and sidecar racer, Fred used to build the motors for the featherbed I campaigned in the early 70's, another character in the gang back then was Mick Hand with his blown CB250, running low 10s on Fred's worn out tyres, when the first slicks came out he dropped almost a second on the first run!
