At 14, I had a 2-stroke, 250 twin Yamaha with a 6-speed. I remember the acceleration of a two stroke 40+ years later.

I bought a used H2 750 in 1983, refurbished it and owned and rode for 4 months. It tried to kill me once a bit over 100 mph, when I closed the throttle and it started a savage pendulum worse than one of those things you use for music. I was frozen..., but what convinced me I had to sell was a 200 km trip on the Alps, in the Gran Paradiso National Park: It destroyed me with vibrations and dried my wallet in fuel. I switched to a much quieter BMW 75/5. Now, 30 years after selling my last BMW 90/6, approaching my 75th b'day, I rode again a bike and I'm waiting for my brand new Guzzi V7 850. Safe rides to all and everyone.

I remember it well, it was a fast bike. But over 5500 rpm was like existential experience. That is probably what you feel when you're are approaching a neutron star

Hola sr Rick. En el año 1980 yo estaba en la secundaria y antes de llegar a mi casa habia una Z1R turbo estacionada en la acera identica a la suya. Ahi empezo mi pasión por las Motos. Solo vi 2 Z1R Turbo del mismo color y Graficos en Argentina. La que te comenté y la otra (que nose si es la misma) en el Museo de termas de Rio Hondo(autodromo ) Gracias por compartir esta hermosa Motocicleta. Ya me suscribí a su canal.

I think the speedo cable may have been dry with maybe a bit too much bend in it. The tach on the other hand I dont know whats up with that thing but that would drive me bonkers.

@rickbrett9173 Жыл бұрын

It's a common issue with old meters, the dampening leeches out over a period, and yes, it DID drive me nuts so I had them both re-damped shortly after this

Sweet sound of my youth. I rode Kawasaki Triples and it was really amazing what a good sticky set of tires would do for the handling. They were “flexible flyers” however so were many other Bikes back then. I was fortunate to start riding at age 4 and came to understand that on a lot of these Bikes the trick was to blast down the straights and ease through the corners. It’s a shame people allowed Scumbag politicians to deprive us of 2 stroke street Bikes, just when they were really getting good.
