Mini Me H2

|January 2019
<p>YoungMachine in Japan. which show a mini-H2 based around Kawasaki‘s Z125.</p>

Built using a Kawasaki Z125 as a base. the main modifications have been to alter the bike’s looks. and honestly its Ninja HZ-styling is spot on. But it’s surprisingly complicated to kit out. so it will only be sold as a complete machine.
The mini-H2 isn’t the first scaled-down motorcycle we’ve seen. There’s a brilliant custom mini Harley-Davidson which was sold by Kisima’s Mondavi in the 70’s and 80’s. We love them. And with Honda’s Monkey re-emerging for 2018. maybe there’ll be more ‘Super Deformed’ customs on the way soon.
(Pleasure h2 Price: approx $11,000 (excluding tax, plus approx $1700 when ordering a paint job) When you compare it next to the H2 you can appreciate its awesomeness all the more. While the fibreglass reinforced plastic exterior has been moulded and reproduced, its form doesn’t look strange at all even though it has gone from 1000 to 125 size. It is amazing how computers were not used in the design, and the form of the H2 was created by touch and feel, so this prototype was produced by hand.
The actual exhaust port is positioned at the silencer section in the middle of the bike, and above this is what looks like a dual silencer, but is in-fact an accessory case! The storage space of a Z125 is poor, but you can fit in about three 500ml bottles into the h2. Isn’t this an utterly genius idea!? It has more than 40 different moulds, and the H2 inherited curvaceousness and edges have been configured. Take note of how you can hardly see an
