Superstar Litte Red with Chet Malito's 1975 Kawasaki KX400 live at Rattlers Run Ahrma National.


Chet Malito's incredible 1975 Kawasaki KX400

Q: Were you always a Kawasaki Man? A: Not really... I started out in '73 on an Honda Elsinore, raced Suzuki in 74-75 and a KX in late '75. Then in '76 I tried yamaha. In dabbling with different makes, I always felt faster on Kawis, so for Vintage MX I went to the KX400 for its mighty motor, and Mike Allen built the machine around that engine.
