h2 750 in lc roller. Sorry t rex i don't want to try and quote the build details on the bike as it's not mine. what i will say is that in it's format it did perform well. lots of low end power and handling was quite good for a heavier, wider engine.

I was thinking it was an RD400 motor with an extra cylinder added on the end.

Man I had an H2 in high school. Cannot imagine that engine in a short wheelbase chassis.

yeah but they were new and the fastest thing out there. Kinda like the H2R is today. We did have to distill the dinosaurs manually though.
