RETRO SEDUCTION

One heck of a motorcycle that you can’t help but fall in love with

- Janak Sorap

‘Oh, *bleep*! What the *bleep* was that?!’ And just like that, it was over. I had just popped the highest possible wheelie on a motorcycle, and for those few moments, all I could see was the gorgeous metallic green fuel tank with gold pinstripes, the dual-pod clocks, and the clear blue sky. And all the while, the following train of thought tunnelled through my mind: This motorcycle is a beautiful-looking one, it’s a test bike recently added to the Kawasaki fleet, and a bunch of other journos were waiting to ride it. It was a crime I wasn’t prepared to let happen.
