Author Description

Broken Chains The limits had been reached. 100 horsepower strong, fuel-injected, turbo-charged superbikes ruled the highways of the world. What could be done to attract new customers? Exactly. Just add two cylinders to the engine and forget about the gentlemen agreement to limit the engine power to 100 hp. The reader of this book will find out, how it was realized and how the newly developed alpha-n fuel-injection system added ten more horsepower to the engine of the last 1300-version, the ZG1300. Also find out how Kawasaki achieved cleaner emissions of their engines by installing the newly developed Clean Air System(R) and how a liquid-cooling system helped to keep the engine temperature within a perfect range.
