There she is, on my dyno.

The owner wants more power, but moderate. He claims his H2 today is lazy. The bike is stock except for the pipes. I have no clue how she will perform.
A dyno test will be done later this week. I am very excited about me getting this job, as I don't have any experience with those pipes. Not with ported engine, or with original cylinders, original carbs and air box like this one have.


to be continued.........

I have a quite powerful exhaust ventilation, 2000W. I use 2 hoses, going through ceiling and up where the fan is located.
Just have'nt put them on the pipes when photo taken.

It might be, It must be, the picture, or my monitor, but I hope that bike hasn't got a purple headlight-shell and "ears"........anyone else notice that.......!?

Thank you jyrg, it is not to my taste, but your client has a fantastic H2, and I have a lot of parts, and a half-built bike...... I really enjoy following these threads, keep posting!! :D
