Peter Starr's films (in those days, no video) were WAY before their time, especially in the editing area. Never forget the one he did of the first Laguna AMA race that Cal Rayborn won on a Harley. The leaders, and some not too-far-back markers, all got a slice on film, passing, dicing, etc, and at the appropriate moment, there was Cal, full screen, with a Santana track blasting with perfect editing for maximum effect, friggin' hair-raising, still.
What might have been. Dark days for sure for Suzuki racing in New Zealand, and the world-sigpicSome of the totally committed probably should be.

Bad ass. I was 7, but a devout follower, and why I own a GS and CB. Just need a KZ

Interesting how in most of the high speed corners the Kawasakis are wobbling, while the Hondas and Suzukis are smooth. I would have thought by then they would have known how to brace a frame.
Cool videos, er ah films.

Kawasaki's engine guys were ahead of the chassis guys for many, many years. The one view of Lawson on the Kawi sure did show a disturbing weave, even if Eddie didn't seem to mind.Originally posted by tkent02 View Post
