When rumours reached Honda that BSA/ Triumph were developing a 750cc triple it galvanised the Japanese giant into creating the world beating CB750 Four. The British triples may have reached the market first but the launch just a few months later of Honda's four-cylinder ' Dream Four' (with electric-start disc brakes & Candy-painted bodywork) caused a sensation in 1968. A new word now joined the lexicon: Superbikes. The opening salvoes in a horsepower war had begun! Superbikes & the '70s captures the spirit of those heady days. It tells the story of a Britain emerging from the dull grey years of post-war austerity into the colourful gritty & psychedelic reality of the '70s. Despite a backcloth of dubious fashion rampant inflation oil embargoes & wild-cat strikes these lightening-fast chromium-plated polychromatic motorcycles suddenly became affordable in an age of full employment. For motorcyclists the '70s meant reliable beautifully-designed machines delivering record-shattering performance! Superbikes & the '70s brings this all home. However it isn't just about the bikes. It's about their times too as reflected in its popular culture politics & the people key to the story of superbikes
- the engineers & designers the larger than life racers like Dick Mann Gary Nixon Barry Sheene & Paul Smart the dealers & salesmen & the industry's titans
- Edward Turner & Soichiro Honda. It gets behind-the-scenes to give the full story of bikes like the Triumph & BSA triples (including the Vetter-designed Hurricane) the Honda CB750 the awesome Gold Wing & the outrageous six-cylinder Honda CBX1000 & Kawasaki Z1300 megabikes. There is also the seriously mad Kawasaki Mach III & Mach IV two-stroke triples Ducati's remarkable Daytona-winning 750 twin Laverda's hairy-chested Jota
- & of course Milwaukee's XLCH Sportster the seed of the Harley come-back. Written by Dave Sheehan Superbikes & the '70s is well illustrated & packed with anecdotes & a wealth of thoroughly-researched detail. The author presents the story from the perspective of those involved at the time the outcomes of whose decisions were by no means certain with the result that the narrative reads like a thriller. A recurring thread throughout the book is Cycle magazine's seminal ' Superbike 7' comparison tests in 1970 & 1973 which demonstrated that superbikes were changing
- riders no longer had to sacrifice civility comfort & reliability in the pursuit of handling speed & acceleration. Superbikes & the '70s is their story.
