Hesketh





Here's what Jim Greening had to say when writing about the National Motorcycle Museum in  the February 1985 issue of Cycle:





Not really fair, I think, but simply a brand new motorcycle design that didn't get enough development time before release, a mistake a few Japanese companies were guilty of too. The Yamaha TX750 and Suzuki TL1000 come to mind. The Hesketh was a startup which always seem suffer from lack of funds and time.
