Okay folks.....little weekend reading for any who wish to look at some golden oldies articles...

This is the august 1979 Cycle World,i bought it for an article on the 1979 MKII and ST models...i will post that article later ,and for those who have these bikes and are looking for rider review fresh write ups circa 79 and also in depth comparisons of the differences between parts on these two models,here is a better listing of the parts changes in these two look alike but very different models....i got some answers i had not been able to find in other write ups to questions i had about exact parts interchange....score...

I will post that article later when i have some more time today or tomorrow.....

For those of you gear heads i am first posting a real in depth 14 pg Vance and hines drag bike tech and tricks article...true it is a GS1000 but the R.C engineering and V&H tricks they use on the two valve zuki...are directly lifted from two consecutive winning seasons developing the KZ1000....This article may be the best write up out there for two valve racing ever printed by a Cycle Mag imo.....

Anyhow...we'll start with a few teaser pics and then the meat of the article will follow ...followed later by a Bimota ,KB-1, KZ1000, full test and write up and the MKII-ST1000 write up as promised....
