i'm glad i never had my H-2 at your shop ........actually, it's never had anyone else's hands or tools on it since i bought it in '78.Kawasaki Z- 1 tranny gears and crank bearings.. races ..side by side ..two air hoses ..spin em up and let em rip across the parking lot !! Almost as good as Rim Out burnouts with customers bikes till the tire blows off the rim in a huge enveloping cloud of smoke ..those were the days !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
H- 2 's were one of the most highly abused items along with RD -400's , GT 550's etc!i'm glad i never had my H-2 at your shop ........actually, it's never had anyone else's hands or tools on it since i bought it in '78.Kawasaki Z- 1 tranny gears and crank bearings.. races ..side by side ..two air hoses ..spin em up and let em rip across the parking lot !!
