Looking for a very good early '72 H2 Headlight ring. This is the one that attaches from the back of the headlight bucket. I just bought oneof the reproduction headlight rings to find that it attaches around the outside of the opening.

Also looking for:
Good Chrome Footrest bolts
Good Passenger pegs
Very Good Ignition Switch and Key
Steering Damper (hydraulic)

Thanks,
Kevin

The Confusing headlight rings, there a 3 types I have the one you want unfortunately it's NOS mint. You wanted very good.
I Should have some good passenger pegs. Send me a link what they look like. All my early H2 don't have there passenger pegs on.

On a side note, I know a guy that has a ignition switch and key, not the greatest chrome, he wanted $100 and a damper $60 he asks a premium, plus i have to remove them. I see him once a month.

Hey Kevin it's Rodney. Wish I knew you needed the ignition and key I just sold one on Ebay real cheap last month would have just gave it to you. You have the plastic bucket like me right? If so the part number for it is a Stanley 001-0730 just like the bucket.

Hi Rodney:
Indeed the rim I need is for the very early H2 with the plastic bucket. I actually have one so maybe I can repair the scrape marks and get it rechromed. I will talk to my plater here in Long Beach - Artistic Plating

Shoot me some pictures of your rebuild as I'd like to see the progress.
Kevin

The early rings for plastic bucket are not that rare. If you're patient you should be able to find NOS for $50 or less. Ignition switch and key are available in repop for $100 or buy NOS for Kawi enduro ...I got one for $20 identical to H2

You can get a new one from Jess. I have used these and they are nice.

I dont this is the same one as an early H2 one as the part numbers are different. I thiink these have screws around the side rather than from the back.
