Widow Maker takes the streets

[@PetesClassicCycle]

Awesome stuff! The bike looks awesome and it's great to see another young triple guy. Looking forward to more H2 videos!

[@bluoval3481]

Nice bike sir! In very good shape. Sounds healthy. Two strokes FTW!

[@billglenn10]

Nice machine & nicely done video - I remember them new on the showroom floor at Dosch Cycle Shop in East Earl, PA...

[@richardwoodhouse8397]

I would put slightly bigger main petrol jets in to side on richer rather than leaner just a tad may help with surging and throttle pic up and run cooler😊

lOOKS SO sTOCK Important for a '72 Very Valuable and iconic

[@zachwrench]

Great looking bike the surge could be extra air getting in I'd check the carb boots first

[@mitchellmiers]

I’ve been doing some reading and some were suggesting that they went one size up on the main jet (if I’m remembering right) which seemed to help.

[@TheMhannah100]

Great bike! Sounded a little boggy as you got close to the fun. Pussycat until it hits the pipe. Better hold on tight.

The H2 was not the widowmaker, that was the 500 H1 Mark III 1969-72

[@mightress]

Had the 500 and the 750. Not nearly as bad as thier reputation. That just grew to mythical proportions. Yes they where a handfull but biggest problem where: the tires. With bit more modern tires they handle just as good as any bike of that era.

[@charlesvanacore7459]

agreed had a H2 you had to respect its limitations..I think because they were pretty cheap a lot of noobs bought them and got hurt.

[@impulserecreationbuyer]

What oil you running in these bad bikes? Nice Vidja Brother!

Castrol 2 stroke oil... thats the only thing Ive put in mine for 48 years...spark plugs , I run NGK 8s That bike should have almost yanked him off of it around 4-5 grand on the tach​.... I have a 1973 H1@@impulserecreationbuyer

Check your pipes are breathing and not coked up with carbon ... Its a big but unrealised issue with 2 smokers.

[@goat9199]

Window maker?

[@mitchellmiers]

Hahah defs a typo. Good thing I’m not a professional

[@TheMhannah100]

It sounded so tame, but when tuned and you hit the powerband, better hold on.

[@wayneselph8778]

Synchronize the carburators. And she will be old smokey again. I have a set of old mercury tubes for my Z1 900 and 1000

[@daryldettmer9160]

Are these older bikes like this like death traps ? why were they called widowmakers ? lol

[@TheMhannah100]

Because when you hit the power band it go's from pusscat to fire breathing dragon. The frames weren't up to the power and handling wasn't the best.

[@daryldettmer9160]

@@TheMhannah100 that's cool , my brother use to have a Honda with a turbo on it he said when it kicked in you better hold on ...lol

[@mightress]

Tires where the mayor cause of trouble.

[@samtatge8299]

As the minutes of this video go by I see on the tach how the seduction of this bike works on the rider.
