Hey slayer61, your buddy has a great taste in motorcycles!!!!! This one I would love to have!!!!!!! Looks like a H1r or H2r frame with a 750 motor in it!!!!!! It even has the H2r style cylinders on the motor!!!!!! Damn that is about the ultimate in H2 street bikes. Only thing missing is the dry clutch!!!!

1972 H2 750 Cafe Racer built in 1974.
1976 KH400 Production Road Racer.
1979 Kz1000 MK. II Old AMA/WERA Superbike.
1986 RG500G 2 stroke terror.
1986 GSXR750RG The one with the clutch that rattles!

Up in the hills near Prescott, Az.

He has always called it as his H2R, even had an opportunity to swap it for a Z1RTC couple years back. He also has a tarted up water buffalo, a full collection of triples from the 250 tea cups through the 750 both street & R versions. His H2 has a full 140 HP Paul Gast motor. RD350s an RZ350 a 500 Gamma and a slew of flat track bikes including a RS750 Honda, a couple of Bultacos, 650/750 Yamahas

Yes. He has good taste.

Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!

I got into the resto business as a retirrement hobby. The plan was to fix them up and then sell them. Unfortunately I lost track of the second part. But I did manage to sell the 2016 resto.

My Z1 from 2014

My KZ1000 from 2015 (That one was a basket case.)

My 2014 Z1 Redone

My Z1 From 2016

Edit...here is a 550 I did for my wife. She did the paint.

Here is my current project...a KZ650

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Stunning work HRM, I particularly fancy the 2014 Z1 for a BOTM feature, what do you think ?

I don't know what happened, but I don't see the re-do of the 2014 bike. Here is is again. It, and the 1980 were my daily riders until I bought my Goldwing with sidecar to transport our doggies. I haven't ridden it at all this year and only once or twice last year, so it probably needs some work to make it a BOTM. I'll see what I can do before the snow flies.
