Pete, there are very few parts that are common between H2 & H1. And there are early and late H1's & H2's that compound the interchange problem. Body parts and especially engines are pretty scarce for H2b and are very expensive when you find them. |

If you want to roadrace the H2B then front wheel needs to be 18", swing arm needs to be shorter than H2B by 1 1/2" to 2", longer shocks. |

Great!! As ive got 18 race wheels ,I use lay down shocks on the z1 as well. Is there a swing arm that i should look out for . or better to build one ? Many thanks !! Pete |

Most aftermarket swingers are longer than stock. It would be good if you could make one. I would keep it the short stock early H2 (72-73) if you are close to sea level. I use a 2" shorter one at altitude because of the power loss. Or if you jack up the back a lot like I do and want super quick steering, go shorter. |
