Hello everyone,

Few days ago I lost the left panel of my gold H2, unfortunatrly I wasnt able to find it (probably went under a car/truck and now it's dead somewhere..).

Anyone has a (left) side panel to sell me?

Cheers
Daniele

Just to let you know you're not alone, I've had my left side over come off several times over the 43 years I've been riding my H2. Twice it was run over by the time I went back and got it.

My first H2 was missing the left side cover when I purchased it in 1983. I didn’t know it was “a thing”back then :D

Everyone with an early H2 has lost the side cover,
...there are fibreglass re-pops available here and there, probably Diablo, Webike in Japan etc. etc. :think:

I’ve had the same thing happen as Jim but only once back in 1979. In my case, I made it back and saw it lying in the road but an oncoming car pancaked it. :o When I put together my current H2, I decided to string 3 black cable ties together for safety measures using the round spring document holder on the left inside wrapping it around the frame. This along with the factory black securing knob. Sorry that happened to you :( but it almost seems like a rite of passage for the H2 owner. :?
