At age 72 I haven’t owned a motorcycle since I had a Yamaha 350 while in my early 20’s in central California. Well north of Seattle now and retired, I’ll soon buy a brand-new retro-classic bike, probably Kawasaki, for cruising. The bikes in this video aren’t easy to find at reasonable prices. Fun video!

When I consider that I have had two 1972 H2 750's as well as a real nice 76KH400 in my day, I feel pretty damn lucky. I grew up with the two stroke bikes, and they are awesome.

I worked for a big Kawasaki shop back in the late 70's and early 80's . On the shops side we hated these things because as a stock bike they were okay ( meant to be an inexpensive beginners bike) . But...as we Americans do we hopped them up and turned them into what we " lovingly " called them two wheeled grenades. Blown cylinders and twisted cranks were the normal repair...the owner hated these things . They would come in with rear treads burned smooth in the center and 1/4 mile times shoe polished on the rear of the seat and wanted repairs on warranty...ha ha ha . He'd practically throw them out of the shop . Ol' Hoodoo...he even had ' ass kicking cowboy " painted on his truck !

Beautiful bikes. BUT....the kings of the smokers had to be the Ariel Arrow and Ariel Leader. You could still track their route the next day!! Kawasaki perfected 2-strokes (kind of) along with the Suzuki 550GT and the Water Buffalo. I love to see these older bikes still being cherished and ridden. Thanks!

I have a 74 H2b Denco. I went out for a Sunday morning ride with friends. Nice and steady I might add. We did 74 miles and I used just over 4 gallons of petrol 😳. Also when I was at the front, my mates had got flecks of oil on their visors and bikes. Where ever I take it people are always interested and of course, I love it even though it's got a drinking and smoking problem. 🏍💨💨💨💨

My 1st H2 came for $400 in 1988 sitting in an Oregon garage with 4,000 miles on it. Dude was scared of it and was done riding it! He'd layed it down at 50 mph due to him freezing up in fear in 2nd gear! It needed new sprockets and chain due to teeth bent over (actually pulled sideways from extreme torque!) being ridden hard by his friends. None of his friends wifes would let the guys have it because everyone heard it scream "Bloody Murder" revved up at 11,000 rpm without baffles! HA! HA! On a tight budget i welded in some VW beetle stock muffler tips because i couldnt afford $150 for new baffles. My Lord, how insane a fresh H2 engine runs when an experienced rider on wide open throttle/ open road !!

Dang. I was given an orange kawi 350 triple in grade 9 for being solid at school; I traded it for a yz125. That was 25 dirt bikes ago . 0 street bikes . But dontcha wish you could have held onto , maybe 1/3 -1/2 of the bikes you ever owned ? ( Yes,i know that bikes decay when not actually being used , but still....)

This is probably the most pointless motorcycle ever. If you don't want one, there is something wrong with you. All I could afford many years ago was a GT550. It was a great bike, but the H2 was just a dream. In my old age I have a litre bike now, and it is a bit on the quick side, but I used to drool over RD400's, H1's, H2's and Z1's. The local Kawasaki dealer also sold petrol. I used to go there on a regular basis, as my work had an account. I used to drool over the bikes. I can not worship Kawasaki there any more, it is now a Mosque. well we all worship something.

I am wanting to colab with serious Kawi H Model builder to build a custom "Frankenkawi" highly modified 6 speed,750+cc, stage 4 ported, water cooled, frame swap into older lighter GS550 with 3 disc multi piston calipers, widow making bike! except for the all new hi performance engine and expansion chambers, all other parts will be late model, used and proven effective components such as huge front disc brakes, to come up with a Hyabusa killer. After watching pro H2 drag bikes pull 8 and 9 sccond 1/4 mile passes I'm convinced this build is practical and buildable for around $10k usd. i estimate top speed around 200 mph with 200 rwhp. and very rideable for experienced rider. Imagine the available torque at rear wheel while rolling at 40 mph and dropping down a gear or 2 and nailing the throttle! First thing to mind here would be swing arm or wheelie bar addition to stay planted the front wheel!
