That's silly.

TBH, I was a bit harsh.

Really, they did make a very cool looking retro-racer, and surely a ton of work.
Big props for that.


This is the bike they started with:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_XZ_550



The motors must be bulletproof.
The only one I ever saw in the wild; long ago job, next door neighbor had one, and a 60's Mustang as well.
Every day he'd leave work, start his ride, immediately out the driveway and full throttle for the 50 yards to the stop sign.
Dunno how he managed to not throw a rod in either one.
Every day I'd cringe, waiting for the *BANG* that never happened.
He did it for years.

And the dustbin, nice fab work, but why?

I think I saw maybe 2 in showrooms & 1 in the wild. Too much squareness for my taste & just a 550 to boot. Both are kinda weird to put that much effort into, but like they say, if it make you hard...

Having had the pleasure of riding a stock H2...

No freakin' way I'd throw a leg over that thing...
