I know it looks like a pile of crap but it has been in a barn for the last 35 years, low vin number 71 also.

No, i think that looks a good resto project.At the moment everybody is giddy for h2c's but in my opinion the original is best.

...I do like the look of a c but the raw edge to a '72 and how it really "digs in" at low revs when you wind the throttle on does do it for me.I used to think that a H2 is a H2, but they are all so very different, so i suppose what i am trying to say is if you have a good 'un stick with it.

so whats it all cost Clive?

Well Malc the bike was a thousand pounds plus shipping,was a bit of a gamble but it seems to have paid off. Looks like the previous owner fell off it in the mid 70's then parked it. Bike is 90% complete and has very little corrosion, engine turns over with good compression inside the tank is like new,missing clocks,front wheel,air cleaner assembly,keys # 688 and the left side panel.Very pleased.
