The genuine kawasaki piston pin I am after in the for sale and wanted section is for for my "British H2C" which the Tony Foale bike was built out of originally.
It came with the british frame and the correct engine was of course in the "Foale".
and the correct loom and switchs were also on it.
It also came with a lot of the H2C parts,bodywork seat etc etc.
I sold the tank to Yogi not realising at the time what I also had was an original UK registered H2C!
Many years later I bought a fairly complete H2C project off D+K and used it as a doner bike for the H2C the engine off it going back into the Foale. Its also the first H2 foale every made (im told he did three
Under the powdercoating you can just see TF-001
I really didnt have any idea when i was buying the "FOALE off "Dave" who had owned it since 1987 What TWO rare bikes I was actually buying!!!

Looking at the pic I bought it in Feb 2003!!

Payed £1800 for it :oops: and £1500 to D+K for the doner bike
