Kawasaki H2 (2023)

[m in sc]

Not mine, but my friend Davids, we went and picked this up from the dealership yesterday.  we stopped by my house on way home to set up the levers and ergonomics a bit. I also got to test ride it a bit. Its eyeballs back of skull fast, its crazy, but surprisingly manageable. Hands down the quickest accelerating vehicle I have ever ridden/driven.     

My wife Angie also tried it on for size.

Very nice and tell David congrats!    I can't even imagine what WOT feels like on that!

Cool lives up to and surpasses the old H2 legacy.    What's the insurance like?  Cool Machine. I am sure it makes ya giggle just looking at it in the garage.

its not mine, so..

full coverage for financing, if he was doing that, was 3300 a year, on a clean license on a 59 year old male.
 considered a 'hypersport'

Like this color scheme.  Might be a good idea to wear full leathers on this one!

It must be mad to ride that bike. Interesting they made the frame red.

A few years ago I met a guy on a ride. Then shortly there after paid a visit to his house. He had one of the first ones of those produced. Here is a small sample of a few of the bikes that reside inside his house.











And in the shop area





I don't remember how many TZ750's were there. He still races them all around the world.

This is from the recent (a couple weekends ago) AHRMA event at Laguna Seca.

^ Dave C. is a really nice guy! I've met and talked with him a couple of times in the Paddock at Barber when he raced AHRMA at the Fall Vintage Festival. His wife, Lorraine, is also a racer than campaigning a Honda CB160. Good people!
Thanks for posting that 2 Stroke porn Ken with all of those beautiful, rare, historical race bikes!
