  7080 .it presents 70 for 80. Remember, a KVOX
• 0:52
  production. Welcome to 70 per 80, the 7080 .it
• 1:00
  section dedicated to the depth of the topics
• 1:01
  discussed in the articles of the portal. We are
• 1:04
  with the director Massimo Lualdi, who introduces
• 1:06
  the current topic. What are we talking about
• 1:08
  today? About motorcycles. The Kawasaki 500 Mac
• 1:11
  Free, actually called Kawasaki 500 H1, was produced
• 1:15
  by Kawasaki in 8 successive series from 1969
• 1:19
  to 1977. Very powerful, 60 horsepower at 8000
• 1:24
  rpm, 200 km per hour. but with some inconveniences
• 1:27
  not of little account, such as the drum brakes
• 1:29
  of the first series, definitely insufficient
• 1:31
  to control the 174 kg of weight thrown at crazy
• 1:35
  speeds. So much so that someone nicknamed it
• 1:37
  the flying bar, mutated by the analogous definition
• 1:40
  of the F104 Starfighter military aircraft, the
• 1:44
  bar on two wheels or the Vadove factory. Problems
• 1:47
  that however did not prevent the 500 McFrey from
• 1:50
  entering an Italian market that was confronted
• 1:52
  with motorcycles with high performance. normally
• 1:55
  at a tenth of that of the Kawasaki. In the early
• 1:59
  70s, imprinted on the young rebellion, the Kawasaki
• 2:03
  500 McFree represented the dream not unrealizable
• 2:07
  of every 20 years. The purchase price was in
• 2:09
  fact, all in all, accessible. 870 ,000 at the
• 2:13
  launch, 990 ,000 at the market consolidated.
• 2:16
  One of the characteristics passed on to the history
• 2:18
  of the model was its noise when it gave gas.
• 2:21
  The three -cylinder front -wheel drive 2T at
• 2:23
  the minimum produced a dry crash emitting a rattle
• 2:27
  sound that made you think of a bell held to the
• 2:30
  chain. And the Kawasaki 500 McFree was a pole,
• 2:47
  it wanted to run because it was in its nature,
• 2:49
  as it was, the wild being and hardly controllable,
• 2:53
  a beast, precisely. Other problems, by the way,
• 2:55
  typical of other motorcycles of the period of
• 2:58
  the same level, were the emissions that were
• 3:00
  in the slide, ended up oiled like a ton in the
• 3:02
  box, and the forks, the frame, certainly undersized
• 3:06
  and incompatible with the power of the engine.
• 3:08
  Thanks to the director of 7080 .it Massimo Lualdi
