This traditional fair is biggest in Nordic Europe, far too many people to take good photos - I went there today very early but after 30 minutes it was really crowded... people from Sweden, Estonia and Russia as well..

This is a 5528 kms ridden all original (except dual discs) H2, sold here when new. Sorry for the quality, a shaky pic.

ThX for the pix smokin.....good stuff.

IMO....the Victory styling design is about as ugly as it gets. A real Edsel of motorcycle styling.

Never knew there was a 3 into 2 for the H2....did I understand correctly this was OEM ?

Very nice photos, Esa, thanks. I have to agree that Victory isn't going along with anyone else's styling trend.

I find very few of the new bikes appealing as far as looks go. Best looking bike in the photos was the H2 :clap:

Thanks Guys, I lost last + 10 shots, my camera decided to end co-operation - a very nice line of old japanese classics and many old racers so the best pics are very shaky :banghead anyone has experience in the new Samsung cameras you can shoot + send immy e-mails etc using wi-fi?
Yes and i was expecting to see 2 beautiful, fully original H1RA:s as well. Saw them few years back, they haven't seen the track since 1976-77 but the owner is very shy...
