Went for a ride- my friend has a very nice '73 H2 750

'73 H1 Triple · 06-16-2008, 11:40 PM

Took a ride over to NJ yesterday to show off my ZR1100 to my friend Jess. I figured he take out his ZRX but when I pulled in his driveway, he had his very nice '73 Kawsaki H2 750 sitting out.

We went for a ride around his neck of the woods where I got these pics.

Nice. But I want to hear ring-ding-ding, and see blue smoke.

I used to not like those type of bikes at all, but the style of them is growing on me a lot. Even though it will be a long time before I buy and restore something like that, if I see a rider on one I have tons of respect.

This was built by one of the guys on the triple forum. Best hnadling triple frame ( '76 KH500 ) with a H2 750 engine. Newer swingarm and front forks too.

Ah yes, the Purple People Eater.

There was one at the last two-stroke meet, but it blew the clutch on the dyno. Ouch!

That guy on the triple is Rick Brett. He's one of the most knowledgable people in the world about the Kawasaki Triples.

Here's a pic of some of his bikes
