Kawasaki's jingle summed up the whole Seventies as I remember them. That was truly the decade of "let the good times roll". We need that groove back so bad now
I had a 750 in 1974, I was 19 and it was very fast. Any trip longer than 2 hours would put your but to sleep and it didn't handle hard braking from over 100. Sold it before it killed me.
Kawasaki 100 was also one of the best selling business bikes in the Philippines back then to be used as motorized tricycles, Kawasaki went third since Yamaha was the best selling business bike that time, Honda was just second back then.
Can you remember when 100 cc was a decent size bike and a 250 cc or 350 cc was more than enough? hard to believe, when only a few years alter, it seemed everyone had a 750 cc and many pushed for 1000 cc. Today, 1200, 1300, 1500, or more is the way to go. Maybe it is just because the bikes got huge. This is a great set of commercials.
Wow, That was Completely Excellent!!! What a great thing having these old commercials!!! I bought a 100 Enduro Orange colored in Feb 1973 from Palm Bch Kawasaki for 429 bucks!! My very 1st bike ever!! I was 17 yrs old and now I'm 63 and just bought a new 2019 Z900RS. You never lose your love for bikes!!! I know I havent!!
That bright happy Kawasaki tune is certainly a 70's , 80's very fond memory . My first bike was a souped up 73 H1D 500 triple 2 stroke . That bike was fantastic ! In it's souped up state that thing was so bloody powerful . No other 500's could touch it . Even the 4 stroke 750's . COME OUT AHEAD ON A KAWASAKI ! ! ! and LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL ! ! ! BRING BACK THOSE GOOD TIMES ! ! !
I don't remember any commercials for motorcycles but the first bike I bought was a Honda MT 250 Enduro in 1976 when I turned 16. It cost $1200 great video
