Put a 90 lb. rider on that and let’s hear it get down the quarter.

That's basically what Kawasaki did with Tony Nicosia. He's a small guy which I'm sure aided in some of his success on the track.

jimsullivan - I got my license on my 14th birthday, and wheelied to high school the next day on a '71, H1 500 with a disc brake mod and chrome J&R Power Pipes. I was THE man in charge! ...until some other 10th grader I didn't know rode up a few days later on his Dad's 1972 Z1 900. We skipped school the next day and went riding, and have now been close friends and riding buddies for 47 years and through about 100 bikes!

I have owned three 750 H2 two of which were 1972s which had the bigger ports than the 1973s ,the 1973s lacked two horse power than the previous year. I have installed and ran Denco, Bill wurches, T N T but by far the ones that i owned but hadn't mention until now were the Bee Stingers .. manufactured by Wheelsmith back in 1973.

I've got another video featuring a set of wheelsmith pipes. Are they the beestingers you're referring too?

Even today you have to be a very good rider or these bikes will kill ya.I know ,I owned and rode one for 10 years was stupid enough to find that the bike can do wheelies in third gear not smart at all

What a GREAT, Informative video Peter! However, I about crapped my pants when I saw how you started it! Please PLEASE Never start the bike like that again, the sidestand is weak at best and I and many others have had them snap with disastrous consequences - One involved a broken shin, another was being started on a workbench when it snapped, the resulting fall saw weeks in traction in hospital :(
@PetesClassicCycle3 жыл бұрын
Rick thanks for the kind words! It really means a lot. Also thanks for the tip! In this case the bike was supported by the tie down straps and wheel chalk. I only kept the side stand down in the event a strap lets go on the lift to help catch the bike if it tips over... (don't ask how why I do that :( ). Regardless that's still a great tip to know as every so often they're a pain to start and kicking them on the side stand is VERY tempting.

For all that don't know the T N T pipes are Denco pipes.. which neither one can be purchased brand new anymore.
@PetesClassicCycle2 жыл бұрын
Not quite... Although Tony co- founded Denco and the original Tnt from were similar but this new design is very different. I have an original denco set and layed them on top of eachother. The differences are massive. I was also witness to a direct swap on the dyno at RB's with NO other tuning and the TNT gained 8hp right out of the box.

Why does the shift shaft go thru to right side?
@PetesClassicCycle Жыл бұрын
It was to allow for a RH shifter to be installed. Depending on your riding style or type of bike you were used to RH shifters used to be fairly common.
