Not sure if this has been posted in the past but I just came across this comparison from 1973 and thought I'd pass it on to everyone. http://www.kawtriple.com/mraxl/articles/1973%20Superbikes/superbikes1.htm

I remember purchasing this copy of "Cycle" and being thoroughly impressed with it. It compared the Kawasaki 750 and 903, Triumph 750 Trident, Norton 750 Commando, Ducati 750, Honda 750, and Harley 1000 Sportster. Guess who came 1st & 2nd, the Kawas? The Triumph and Norton came 3rd and 4th. The Harley came .....last

Excellent read.
