Is that a 500 or 750? I thought the 500 was harder to handle, 13 sec. quarters stock if you could keep it down.

Such a simple tech, that even the chinese could replicate without issues... but hey they are nasty 2T.... We are green now, let's make tons and tons of depleted batteries instead.

Ive enjoyed my xpect and rxb150 I actually like riding my xpect more than my harley. neither have left me stranded or tried to kill me. The only reason and this goes for any make of motorcycle that they would be a death trap. is lack of maintinice and not properly inspecting the bike when you first get it. or lack of skill for the bike your trying to ride like a newb learning on an h2 new or old version both are nasty that's asking for truble.

Magician16.....the one pictured is a 750 H2. The H2 when introduced in 1972 set and held the quarter mile record for a stock production bike, at 11.95 secs, and I think right at 116 mph....

......Aaaaaand here is a Video that enrages both H1 and H2 Enthusiasts and Chopper guys both at the same time, the H1 and H2 guys rail about cutting one up to make a Chopper out of it, while the Chopper guys turn blue screaming a 2 smoke has no place in a Chopper frame! Meanwhile, i ask myself "would i ride this motorcycle " , and find the answer is " Oh hell yes, i 'd be terrified, but i'd ride it!

I would do it just to piss people off...LOL the whole idea that started the chopper scene was using what you have, so to go down to the root of it, it shouldnt piss anyone off... just like rat rods... use what ya got and slap it together to enjoy riding or driving...

Funny isn't how everything seems to piss some people???......

They want to be green, yet they will make even more wasted due to deployed batteries...

I ordered a tbr7 from txpowersports last year, and I live in Alabama. I had no problem registering my bike what so ever, the only issue i had was that i had to upgrade the carb for max performance, and my brake lite was hooked up wrong. My bike has been awesome since i bought it iver a year ago. No problems what so ever. I registered my bike at the Vance, AL tag office, if anyone was curious.
