GT 750 no question - bought one new in 1976 - not the greatest of bikes because of the poor handling but it was reliable and quite powerful for the time. Much nicer to ride than the widow maker. However, not long after I bought it I had the privilege to ride a z900 and regretted my decision - much better bike and four stroke was clearly the way to go in the future.

you may not compare street legal 2 stroke bikes with racing 2 stroke bikes and you forgot the 3 cyl. 2 stroke from kawasaki ( S1 - S3, H1 and H2 )

Land turtle to angry Hornet on Nitro. The H-2 will rock on! forevermore as a Stallion superbike, especially on Denco Chambers. The article states quarter mile e.t"s of 12 flat. No- sorry man. experienced rider will turn mid 11 second e.t's on an H2 triple without expansion chambers !!!!!!!!!

H2 of course. I had a 72 with expansion exhaust system, who gave it ca 10 hp moore. It was a beast. No other bikes could compete, and after mounting a steeringdamper it was ok i high speed too.

I still own (and ride) the GT750. Rock solid bike, apart from emissions still a very good bike. The Kawa is a complete different concept of bike. It's like compare a GSXR with a Goldwing. Both good bikes in their way.

I had both and went to the tail of the dragon each summer month. This was back in the early seventies. The Kawasaki pulled unexpected wheelies and you had lay down on the tank most of the run. The Suzuki was very strong but more controllable in the curves. I could push it harder thru the curves. The Kawasaki was scary and super fast. It was so fast the blood in your head had a hard time keeping up with bike.

I used to drag race an H1 500,was a passenger on a H2,very impressive,however when I purchased a 2008 Suzuki B-King the 2 strokes took a back seat! I still love the old bikes for what they were and had a number of smaller cc 2 strokes,RDs,Kawasaki KH400s etc.

Both very fast bikes, lots of respect. I raced them both on the street in the day with my new '73 750 Norton Commando with the Combat engine, another 750 superbike. The H2 was the only bike then faster than mine. I did beat a GT750, but just barely. I also raced Sportsters, Honda 4's, Tridents, H1's, and built Superglides. When you had a hot bike, everybody wanted to race, even cars!

I had a dead mint 72 H2 for a long time (even crashed it once!); never owned the GT750 but I did have a GT550 for a while. They were totally different philosophically- the H2 was a straight line terror, super fun in a death- defying way, until you let off the throttle, and the head shake was death defying in a not super fun way. I sold the Kawi to buy a Triumph TR3. I miss the H2, but I'm not sure I'd really like to ride one much now; I'm older and wiser. The Suzuki was smooth and comfortable; I'd ride that anywhere. And three cylinder two strokes just sound magical.

The GT 550 was just as good had two people on the bike and still ran easily over 100 mph the Kawasaki 750 the wind would blow you off the road junk and rattled and hot as hell the heat would kill you . Suzuki was the king .

The Zuke was boat anchor reliable, and about as fast. The H2 would run away and hide from the Zuke. I had a 1972 Honda CB 500 Four that was geared for the 1/4 mile. A fellow H.S. graduate had a '73 Zuke. I could run dead even with it in a 1/4 mile. HOWEVER-On a racetrack like Daytona, the factory modded Zuke was a force to be reckoned with. VERY fast.....

Yup got most of them road ready. The Daytona's a bit harder to kick, has XS400 stuff handed down. Still all stock with the flapper valves. The 400C is more fun with more top end with its higher porting. Still fun to get on the R5/RD hybrid though with its shorter stroke and light wheels. Nothing though compares acoustically to a triple thought. On the hunt for a turn key pedigreed S2 350.

Kwack 500 was a better bike than the 750 - lighter, although still too heavy for my liking, and the only bike I ever rode that accelerated faster than it braked. For light and fast I had to wait for the RD350LC... The Suzuki RG500 was much quicker than all of them, but that was way too heavy as well, which was a shame... Woof!
