I've been dabbling in Yamahas for a while but wanted another triple.

So what are the chances that your cellphone goes off in your pocket, and a guy says please come take my 72H2 away from my garage?
Well it happened..... here it is. It needs TLC

A case where the bike "found" you. Very nice "find"! :thumbup:

Your new H2 does round out your 2 Yamaha twins! :thumbup: What's the story with the missing front brake rotor? Widowmaker for sure without front brakes. :? :o
