An H1F is featured on the cover of this months Classic Bike Magazine together with a Z1B, the article inside compares side by side ownership of these two machines. Thanks to Blackhat for the heads up. :D

I'd go for that being somewhere about accurate if using GPS / Laser toclock it - I have SEVEREdoubts that you would see 115MPH on a stock H2c :oops:

Fitted with lowered bars, rearsets and a fairing and also on an "A" which of course is a faster bike to start with. What have you seen on your "B" though J-P?

:smt038 For you JP! . . . I have only owned 400+ H2's .. . and probably only ridden 700 or so in my life :roll: . . So I can only talk from ancient technology and experience . . . I am sure that in a court of Law you most likely win the "arguement" with your evidence from modern technology :P
