See where Sport Rider Magazine just took a Brocked out H2 down the Mojave mile at 226.9 mph. This can't be true cuz according to the experts those things aren't fast at all:headscratch:

What he said^^ Its amazing when you think you have something fast thats 200 hp. And then you get to try out something that REALLY is fast that is 400 hp. It makes your 200 hp "fast" feel like a moped. I recently saw a local guy who had an H2 get WAXED very badly by a turbo busa. Guy thought he had something special until he got completely embarrassed by a bike that cost less than half of what he paid for his H2.

It don`t matter how much horsepower you got after 100 h/p on a sportbike. Every time you jump on it bangin gears you are 1 step away from going to jail and your bike impounded.I installed k-40 front and rear laser /radar detectors on all 3 of my Kaws. It saves me tickets every time I ride one of them.I know it`s coming but I can`t fight the addiction to jump on it.Just think what those motherfuckers are going to do to my h2 while i`m sitting in a cell waiting to set bail..............

That`s where you are dead wrong.There is always a bigger monster out there. Who cares, not me.The key with the H2 is the entire riding experience and ownership of it.We are in a class by ourselves.I have the only one in Missouri. People stand in wonderment of this sob. If you ride one you will too. I have a couple hundred thousand miles on superbikes and this H2 scares the fuck out of me.I can`t trust it won`t flip me.My 14r does not snap up fast like the H2.It`s the blower doing it.

Nah I have no desire at all to ride one, I think they are ugly after seeing one in person. There are a few running around here and they brought "some" attention at the local hangouts. That was until the one h2 owner was bragging about how bad ass it was and as you said "in a class of our own". Then when he got destroyed by the turbo busa, no one really cared about the h2 anymore.

Well I am going to off the current subject. I have a 2007 kawasaki ninja zx10r and 1st gear slips in and out of gear. All others do fine. I replaced the clutch carbon pads but noticed the steel plates had burnt spots on them. Splitted the casing checked the gears and forks and shift drum all was within spec almost to the t. Put back together still doing the same. As long as i am cruising in 1st it does fine but the higher i get on the rpms it starts to slip.
Has any one had this problem with theres and what was the promblem to fixing it.
I just bought the bike knowing it has issues with 1st gear. If any help would be very appreciative.

it is pretty cool, i give them props. but its only fair to compare it to other forced induction bikes. factory or not IMO (not trying to start any pissing contests)

mark, if your 14r was running as much boost as your h2, i think you would feel differently about what bike was the monster :)

This is the exact same point I was trying to make. You have to compare fairly to make an honest comparison. Otherwise you are comparing apples to oranges. Not to mention, if you have the know how (like the guy on the turbo busa I was referring to, has) you can build much more bike for alot less money.

the h2 is awesome for a stock machine, but i can buy a zx10r, turbo it and have 400-500 hp for the same price. likely 350 on pump if intercooled.
