I've had a pretty decent history with a few H2's and H1's in my childhood. My dad has had a lot of motorcycles and still have a PERFECT H2 in his collection. I was barely big enough to ride them in my early teens and he even let me take em out on the road on some weekends! My mom would have killed him if she ever found out! My ol man had 2 perfect Kawasaki Triples: a bright orange H1 500 and a candy blue H2 750. What sweet, sweet motorcycles. He would let me take em out and ride a few miles and they were scary fast. Now that I look back on it he was kinda crazy for letting me take them out on the road at such a young age. I was very lucky. He told me the other day that he has a couple pictures of me on them from way back in the day! I can't wait to go check them out.

He has since sold or traded those off and he now keeps one last triple in his shop... a flawless green H2. I grab the keys and take it for a ride when I go up and visit him. I'm planning on another trip this next month so maybe I'll grab a video camera and shoot some footage.
