Hello All :D ,

Just had a Telephone call from John Cantile at 2 Wheels Only Bike Magazine - Anybody with a Standard H2/a/b/c interested give him a ring ASAP. :lol:
Ta Ta - Keith :D


Hi Keith -

Good to talk to you earlier.

Two Wheels Only magazine does a monthly classic road-test pitching two old
rivals from yesteryear against each other again, and for next month we'd
like to do a Suzuki GT750 v Kawasaki H2.

I've managed to locate a willing owner of a Kettle, but am now looking for a
similar H2 owner who would be okay for us to ride their bike sometime within
the next two weeks.

Do you know of anyone who's got a mint, original-spec H2 who would be happy
for us to ride it in the magazine? We'd do no more than around 50 miles on
the bike, it would be vanned to/from location, fully insured by us and
treated with the utmost respect. We'd also want to interview the owner about
the real costs of living with a bike like this.

If you could perhaps post this email up on the site and let me know if
there's any interest, I'd be hugely grateful!

Kindest regards,

John Cantlie
