Kawasaki H2 750 Mach IV description
Very interesting and unique '74 Kawasaki H2 750 - built as a racer/cafe racer many years ago.
I've had a number of Triples over the years (S2, S3, S4, many H1s and a few H2s) and this is one of the most interesting that I've owned. This is my last Triple that I'm letting go (I have many other bikes and I'm not getting any younger..). I primarily build race and cafe racer bikes, but came across this H2 in its current state of build/condition a number a years ago (I also work on RD's, Ducatis and BMW Airheads). A lot of work went into it and it's incredibly fast and well built. It was taken off the road about 6-7 years ago and kept on display, like many of my older machines. I had plans to change the body work a little and put it back on the road, but I have too many other projects and so, I'm letting it go. In it's current seat/tank/clip-ons set up, the reach is very long. I'm 5'7", but if you're tall (over 5'10") it should feel just fine. Here are the specs - note that some of this information was given to me by its previous owner. I've ridden the bike less than 200mi: - Engine rebuild by Paul Gast (Fast By Gast) in the mid-90s (approximately 1,800 miles ago) >>>Excellent compression - Fast By Gast expansion chambers - Raask rear sets - Clip-on handle bars & bar end weights/protectors - Racing top triple tree - Steel braided brake line - Drilled front rotor (just noticed that the caliper was a little sticky) - Air assisted fork compression caps with a balancing tube (see pics) - Larger rear sprocket and newish chain - Airtech fiberglass tank and front fender - Cruciata vintage fiberglass tail section (I've never seen one of these) - Brand new Pingle petcock and adapter (not installed) What it needs: Battery, carb cleaning, pod/UNI filters, and I'd clean up the front caliper (as I mentioned - it was a bit sticky when I was rolling it around to take pictures). The H2 has never been left outside, the chrome is nice, there is no oxidation on the engine fins, there is a little road rash on on of the pipes, but nothing severe. I also have a 2nd set of pipes (Denco race pipes I think - they've been boxed up for years) that will come with the bike IF someone selects the BUY IT NOW option. This H2 is being sold in AS IS CONDITION with no implied or expressed warranty. $500 Paypal deposit due at the end of the auction and the balance to be paid in cash when picked up. I can help with transport within 50 miles of the bike's location in upstate, NY, zip code 13740. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. |

2014 Kawasaki Estrella Retro-Styled 250 Announced for Japan
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Fans of classic-styled motorcycles will have to go to Japan to find the 250cc Kawasaki Estrella. The Estrella has been around since 1992 but apart from a few years of European availability in the late ’90s, has mostly been confined to Kawasaki’s home market. Updated for 2014 with a new seat and color options, the Estrella remains powered by an air-cooled 249cc Single.
2014 AMA Supercross – Anaheim 1 Results
Mon, 06 Jan 2014KTM rookie Ken Roczen captured his first 450 class win in the AMA Supercross world championship, taking the season opener at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif. An audience of 45,050 fans watched a clean race from the rookie while errors by veterans like James Stewart and three-time reigning champion Ryan Villopoto knocked them out of contention. Villopoto had a strong start, taking the holeshot and leading the first eight laps, just like the Kawasaki rider had done so often the last few seasons.
Simon and Leo
Thu, 11 Aug 2011If you are a track day regular this year, you may well have bumped into former racer and friendly Kiwi, Simon Crafar. I first met him in Malaysia in 1990 when he was riding for a Yamaha dealer team, sweating his way round circuits like Shah Alam and Johor Bahru but with a long term plan to make it onto the World scene. And he didn’t take long as after riding for Honda in the UK in 1992 he moved to WSB in 1994 and enjoyed success with both the Honda and Kawasaki factory teams.
