Better to have loved and lost..........

I owned it from Oct 16 until 2020.Paid top money £6k It was a peach, 1977 rebuilt when the 250 cc learner laws made 250cc worthless. New rims £16 , side panels £24 pair , new tank all NOS. I joined the Kawasaki triples club led by the guy from Kawatripleparts in Wheelton. There was a very strong tiddler section with owners of 250/350& 400. The brave 400/500/750 boys like yours had there own club.

It was 100% reliable, never let me down , could easily fill two lanes of a dual carriageway with smoke after a winter sleep, really torqey more like a four stroke. Probably the bike I most regret selling.

The guy at Wheelton is Simon Lister, his business has been taken over by Tony Davenport

I remember Simon from his shop when I visited and his stand at the October Stafford Show. He always had some nice triples in Wheelton some from Rick Brett

Fabulous. I love all the 'Strokers' - particularly the 350 GTO Bridgestone.

I had a Bridgestone 90 back in the 70's...went like stink for a little bike...always getting stopped by bike cops wanting to know what the hell it was One of the most fun bikes I've ever owned
