    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I'm sure you could ride that one 177 miles, maybe like 177 times around the neighborhood over a three year period or something. Not sure why you'd want to.

I can think of better uses for that board and tether.
 
Would you trust this guy whose now trying to run an auction on CL? Had this bike listed for $1200/BRO a few days ago and didn't respond to an e-mail to come look at it. Now I see why. Using the "I lost my job" and keeping someone on hold for $1500 now. Why bother with him? Maybe someone should offer him $2000 and then jilt him, to give him a taste of his own meds....:rolleyes:

That is not a funny bike. That's a serious bike. He is scared. So am I. Not for children, teen or young men.

I had the 400cc version and that was enough at the time.

750cc two stroke is like saying 1500cc on the same light frame. Mountains of power.

Then buddy puts on pods to get a few percent more HPs?

It's plated but this is a drag bike. The only "Safe place for that is on a strip.

Almost the exact same power to weight ratio as a 600 Bandit.
H2 = 74hp and 198 KG 600 bandit = 78 hp and 208KG or in the .375 HP/KG range

It wasn't the HP that made the H2 dangerous, it was peaky powerband and a crappy frame.

BTW 2008 Hayabusa = 220KG and a claimed 198HP or about .9HP/KG

Right. It's one thing to roll on the throttle and feel the slightly increasing torque (pull) from 3000-9000 RPM, or even feel it ramp up strongly like on a turbo.

It's a whole different game when you have the throttle smacked wide open trying to get some power out of the damn thing and suddenly you flipped a wheelie backwards and you're tumbling down the road when you hit the sweet spot.
 
"Absolutely no test rides. I have been riding for 20 years I have a Yamaha R1 and this bike scares the hell out of me. Not recommended for beginners."

This guy is honest anyway.

The 400 triple was a nice bike, had enough frame and enough brakes, at least it seemed like it at the time. Still if it came on the pipe coming out of a corner it was a real eye opener.
There's a reason there are not many 750s left.
 
+1 on that, that machine is a foul, bad tempered green axe murderer.
As it was said, the power is one thing, no more than todays pocket rockets, but strapped into a spaghetti frame and suspension with non existant brakes, :eek: the guys who used to race them had huge, cast iron nuts, but, damn what I wouldn't give to have one, serious grin factor.
