Kawasaki's Storied Lineage: How One Bloodline Produced Two Legends, the W and the Meguro M

Brands sharing the same roots and then going separate ways — there are probably similar examples at other manufacturers too.

Was Meguro a company absorbed by Kawasaki? Don't know the history well.

Lineage stories tend to get romanticized, but I'd still like to know more about the technical differences between the two models.

It's a bit surprising, and interesting, to see Hong Kong media dig this deep into a Japanese heritage model.

An air-cooled vertical twin's sound still has an appeal that doesn't fade even hearing it today.

The W and the Meguro M growing into totally different characters from the same roots makes for a fascinating history.
