Hi all
I have a passion for 2 strokes and I am looking at buying an H1 my wifes uncle has, that has been setting for years and is locked up. I know parts are hard to come by and rather pricey, but I sure do want to bring this bike back to life. I will be here asking for guideance in restoring this great motorcycle. Heck it can not cost any more than my 82 CBX resto that I am about to finish up.
thanks in advance for any help.
Ride safe
RIP

Welcome!

There is plenty of help available here. If it's locked up, that will be the first hurdle.
Most parts for the 500 are not too scarce and most can be had at a reasonable price.

Please add your location to your profile from the user control panel link in the upper right.
Knowing where you are can make it easier to get localized help.

By the looks of that CBX you ain't going have no problems with a H1. Keep us posted.
