I just took this 73 in today from Z1 parts and wondered if anyone here built this bike?
Has what looks to be a Ninja front end and a mono shock aluminum swing arm. Any details
would help. I don't like the upper triple clamp, anyone to contact to make up a aluminum
one for me? Looks to be 41mm forks and there are spacers top and bottom of the triple clamps.
Might look better just to change the complete front with maybe a RGV250 or GSXR 750.

Isn't that Dave's (Super Dave's?) H2. I get his board name confused... the guy with the 200 hp go-kart. I remember him selling one like that not long ago. My memory on this is pretty cloudy though.

I think that's Dave Hamilton's bike... :think: He's the one with the wicked go-cart.
Anyway, isn't he "Crazy Dave"? :crazy:

Edit: fixed so I'm not the ONE who's wrong. :lol: Looking at the front fender now it does look like Dave's bike. :oops:

I'm pretty sure that is a bike Dave H. sold recently. If it has Wheelsmith chambers, then I'd bet it was his.

Are the silencers cut short? That would be another indication that it was CD's bike.

Those are the pipes, and that has to be Dave's former H2. I don't have anything other than the board's PM and Email buttons, but I don't even know his board name here.
