We Talk About the Original Kawasaki H2 That Smoked the Competition Back in The Seventies
-
What is better than a single cylinder two stroke? Well, a three cylinder two-stroke! And Kawasaki felt the same way when it launched the now-iconic H2 in 1972.
Based on the 500cc H1 Mach 3, the new H2 now displaced 750cc and straight away bagged a new production motorcycle record by covering quarter of a mile in 11.95 seconds at a blistering 186 kph in the very same year it was launched. If this didn’t define the term ‘off to a flying start’, then we wouldn’t know what else would.

HISTORY CHANNEL
When I'm around old motorcycles, I often find myself wondering what it must've been like to be born in an earlier time. Wondering, mind you, not wishing. I wonder what it was like when mankind invented the motorcycle. I wouldn't want to get anywhere near the first motorcycle, the Daimler Reitwagen (the word means 'riding car', stupidly enough), made by German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. To quote Melissa Holbrook Pierson, 'The first motorcycle looks like an instrument of torture.' And something that might cause an explosion uncomfortably close to one's nether regions. Right after it's shaken loose every healed bone in one's body.
