1970s Kawasaki H1 500 "Project H1"owner: m in schttp://tinyurl.com/7qm5flhttp://tinyurl.com/93uytoWhat can one say except "wow"? This bike won our first annual 2Stroke Bike of the Year contest going away. "The Frog" as it is most popularly known, is a first rate custom bike in every respect. Speed and performance, looks, technical upgrades, it's all here. To top it off it's owner is a most gracious and generous 2stroker, a good example for me of a truly decent guy. I can't think of a 2 stroker more deserving of winning a contest and some prizes than mr. m. The other bikes in the contest finals were great, really great, but this rig just has instant appeal. Thanks to everyone who has these great bikes and everyone who makes the bikes and their experiences available to us all here. Thanks to John at Economy Cycle for continuing to be our only beloved sponsor, and for providing us with a kick ass prize package for this contest. John is another gracious and generous 2stroker with a lot of knowledge and most of the parts/accessories/attire we could need. Give Economy Cycle a chance with your next order, and remember all forum members enjoy a 10% discount on every order excluding vehicles! Discount code for checkout is 2SW or just email or call Economy Cycle.

personal quote from many years ago:
"I appreciate the beautiful things in life: smoky burnouts, wheelies, a nice set of wrenches, a beautiful set of tits, a well-brewed cup of coffee ... and a cop chasing you until he runs out of gas. I like that, too."

Congrats on a well engineered bike, shows great detail.
