Post subject:  72 H2 Turn Signals and...
After attending a restoration seminar at Barber's last year, I decided not to restore the H2 I normally bring to the gap. I'm just going to freshen up some parts and go for a "survivor" rider. I need turn signals (I can't buy new repos...they will look out of place if they are too nice). Short stems are OK (I don't care for the long ones).

Also still looking for a stock center pipe. Maybe a 7 out of 10?? Mine has a dent on the bottom.

That's probably a smart move Chris. My next triple is going to be rider quality only. It takes really deep pockets to a nice restoration. Right now my pockets are turned inside out.

Plus I have the h2 special to finish so I don't need another show quality H2.

Chris, I have several turn signals for a 72, all the stems are the stock long length. Also may be able to find a center
pipe. I've restored several 72-3 H2's for Z1 parts and if I don't have the parts Taner should. We hang on to all the
old parts just in case someone wants old original parts.

Thanks. I'll try to send you an email this weekend. I've been swamped.

Ron, I wanted to show you what the bike and current pipes look like. I think you tried to help me with a set of stock pipes before, but I couldn't really tell from the pics if they were any better than what I had. Anyway, I can live with these for now, except I'd like a better center pipe due to a dent in the bottom. If you have a center in about the condition of these, I'm interested. Hard to rate these, there are light scratches in the chrome and rust under the hangers, but from 10 feet away they look like 7 out of 10 maybe? I don't know. Also, this will give you an idea what kind of shape for the turn signals. Let me know what you have. Thanks! I should also say these have not been cleaned in quite a while.

Use my rating system, I call my H1 and S3 50/50 bikes: from 50ft @ 50mph they look AWESOME! :thumbup: :wtf:

I saw your S3 closer than that sitting still and I thought it was cool. ;)

I don't have a center here Chris but let me check with Taner and Z1 parts. They have several sets of pipes I have
taken off H2's I have restored for him. You still need turn signals?

Yes Ron, still could use H2 turn signals. You can see the current rear signals in my pic. Honda??
