The '''[[Kawasaki]] H1''' was the bike that changed the course of high performance motorcycling. The three-cylinder, 500cc two stroke power plant had an impressive 60 horsepower and became the quickest production motorcycle EVER produced as it sped down the quarter mile in an unbelievable 12.8 seconds @ 99.5mph. The H1 retailed for $999.00 it would typify what Kawasaki became known for '''Innovation''' and '''Acceleration'''! The H1 still creates excitement today. | The '''[[Kawasaki]] H1''' (known in cycling circles as "The Mach III") was the bike that changed the course of high performance motorcycling.
