    That was a weird design, as I recall - both pistons moving together instead of opposed?

    Does this count as an interesting engine?

    Anyway, I remember a good mate of my old man used to own one of these and he literally kept it in the middle of his lounge room.
    We’d go around his place and all sit on couches around this bike in the middle.
    It was the same colour as this one Harry has (although presumably not US spec).

    At the time as a 20 year old I couldn’t work out why he loved it so much, but now I think it was a pretty cool thing.

    I’m interested to see what the story is with that 750 two-stroke. WTF?

    I thought my mates RG250 was a mental death trap when I went on it in 1991… :eek:

    Yep the H2 is lethal in a fools hands, dodgy handling and a power band that would put the wind up Buzz Aldrin

    That should go into the "Interesting Engines" thread. Fascinating.
