From the same Classic Motorcycle and Mechanics mag:

"Friday afternoon was for motorcycle field games. In the slow race everyone backed their bikes up to a wood fence and slowly rode about 100 yards. The person getting there last without dabbing or stopping won."

I'd be all over the Formula 40 class for that one.      :biggrin:

Parts, I need parts and stuff.  I have a crank now.  I need a trans.  $ouch.

Call Expert Cycle in Blue Island, Il.  Owner Guy used to sponsor Tez, knows who you are, and might give you a deal.  I know he's got the parts you need because I've actually seen them.  He didn't use or sell them, but can he find them?  Here's hoping!  I wish everyone could have the things they want & need.  Good luck.

Trans I need isn't stock.  It's a UK item.  One place to get it, but I appreciate the thought.

I don't believe that Dave has a triple. I think it's just talk. I have heard about this machine for something like 5 years, yet to see anything about it except for some cylinders that Mitch Stein had with him. I think this bike only exists in Dave's head! 8)

What do you I have?  I've got a lot of stuff, but most of it isn't of real use as it's all street bike stuff. 

'73 ignitions are cool though for the H1. 

Kawaski Triples message board is a good place to move stuff too.  I've got a couple of special items that I might try to sell there since they won't really help my H1 road racer.

Not much for the 500's some nice left over rims and cables, i unloaded a bunch over the winter and now the small stuff that nobody wants is all that is left, i will try the message board for the other parts. I would love to see an H1 on the track, the triples were before my time but my father had 500's and 750's all through my childhood some fun memories of riding behind him smelling the oil and remembering how hard to hang on when the front end came up. I really have a spot in my heart for the 2 strokes esp the Kawasaki triples.

I've got DID rims laced up with modified hubs already and tires.  I've had those since 2000 or 2001.

Lots of things are done.  Too many other things take time.
