• 452 lbs.
  • 74 horsepower
  • Three cylinder, triple carburetor, 2 stroke engine
  • The H2 had an all new engine, not a bored or stroked 500 cc engine from the H1.
  • In 1972, the H2 was the fastest accelerating production Motorcycle in the world. It could cover the ¼ mile in 12 seconds, and it had a top speed of 120 mph.
  • It had a good low end performance, compared to the H1 500, with power coming on at 3,500 rpm, all the way to the 7,500 rpm red line.
  • It came standard with a single front disk brake, with an optional rear disk from the factory, in place of the drum brake.
  • This bike is restored to stock specifications.
  • The H2 was more powerful, and to some extent, easier to use in the real world when compared to the H1’s limited power band. But it was still considered a “widow maker”, due to its ability to accelerate hard enough for second gear wheelies, and relatively unstable handling at high speeds. Still, this is a bike that when ridden normally, is both entertaining, while being light and easy to ride around town. Seems like sometimes these bad reputations soften over time…
