love two strokes, i had a 400 back in the day, very quick when cold but not quite the same when hot, if they made 1000cc two strokes now days i'd buy one for sure.

[louythelip]

Cheep thrills. They were fast but were are they today???? I still have the 1976 XLCH that use to get piss wiped ..Stock heads,jugs,lower end and trans. 2 rebuilds and years of use. Still get chicks who Love it..only take it out to special rides now a days. I'm almost 60.owned Flats,Knucks,Pan's Shovels Evo's and the First Twin cam.There is still no rice in my Garage.

or any ware on my property,with 2sons and 3daughters who ride.

[Suzukiboulevard]

I use to have a 350 just like the one on the right(red). Loved that bike.

[FierySora1]

I freakin love that 2 stroke sound.

[snowpeachairten2]

WHY DOES EVERYBODY WITH THIS KIND OF BIKE ALWAYS JUST STAND THERE AND THROTTLE A LITTLE BIT LIKA A RETARDED TEENAGER WITH HIS FIRST MOPED. DRIVE IT SO PEOPLE THAT ARE REALY INTRESSED CAN WATH IT AN EJAKULATE. GOD DAMN IT...

[Uncle5cary]

The Ministry of Proper Behaviour has determined that you are having way too much fun.

[Sodierof4tuneBabi]

use motul 510 2T

[indigoblue555]

Fine collection; which is you best loved ? I still recall the 350cc being a true little beast compared to the 400cc which was pretty smoother but pretty safer as well.

Owned a 500H1B in the late 70es:orange red and blue smoke did match great.

[bigun1999999]

rofl the kawasakis idle sounds like a bag of nuts and bolts in a dishwasher

[Blues353]

Two strokes rule. Narrow power band but too much fun, and the sound!

[bluespirat]

KAWAATTACK

[6122gerald]

DIESEL IS GOOD FOR THAT STATE TO.COME TO THE AZ,UT or OR BOARDER

[smokeweedtilidie]

FUCK GLOBAL WARMING :)

[gumpdy]

real fun to ride! you smell like shit everywhere you go.

[scott93257]

Holy Kaw....:D Beautiful bikes.

[inagod]

late night speed runs,bugs in your teeth,that was my life,I paid 40 cents for Sunnoco 260,My red Mach 3 cost me 1104.00.I use to pass on seeing my girl friend,some nights,just so I could ride the rocket.They were the fastest production bikes in the world,in 1969-1970

[flaviupodina]

now that's pure polution :))

[828cc]

Banned by California!

[twostrokeaddict]

@828cc

fuckem

[miles8775]

@flaviupodina I wish they would make a 2 stroke air freshener :p

[pitbull426]

how fast r these bikes any comparison to the new 600s

[828cc]

You're looking at 60bhp versus 120bhp so there's a lot of difference :-)

[mfuji02]

@828cc now how much hp can you get with these bikes?

[cranberryfool]

@828cc but they will beat them off the start

[9thprotocol]

Kawa triples were the best...Suz 2T triples were lame in comparison

[828cc]

I do agree but I still like my Kettle :-) Anth.

[CCDriver91]

These bikes are nature's best friends!! :)

[TheJvLOG]

killin skeeters and havin fun while doin it. i love 2 strokes!!

[ruzphi]

My first bike was N reg too ,rare seeing the old black L and M plates .Thanks for the posting

[828cc]

Thanks, I hope to get the H1 out for a new vid during the summer :-) Cheeers, Anth.

[terryorr]

God, I miss the awesome 2 stroke oil smell of my 72 H1!

[828cc]

2 stroke and Castrol... both are awesome :-) Cheeers, Anth.

[toppo1990]

Gorgeous bikes youve got there mate

[828cc]

Cheers, hope to get the H1 out for a new vid this year :-) Anth.

[NombredeusuarioY]

my kawasaki 1200,200hp with thunder exhaust...it sound...like a thunderstruck,nothing compares with,very very diferent

[NombredeusuarioY]

I have an NSR 80 upgrade to 100 cc and the sound may differ a very little of that 1250,exhaust is the cause

[NombredeusuarioY]

sounds like a scooter....2t

[828cc]

Well they wouldn't sound like a Goldie would they :-) Anth.

[Doggitter]

@NombredeusuarioY

Sadly you'll never no how wrong you are if that's a put down.

[devja71]

cough cough. kawi triples where so damn cool

[828cc]

They were super coool :-) Anth.

[assmunch1]

Drive the FUCKING things!

[828cc]

Check out my other vids Mr. Munch :-) Anth.

[grahamzx9r]

Must get another triple, must get another triple, must get another triple!!!!!!!!!!!

[828cc]

Must must must!!! :-)

[TheSkootertrash]

Very cool! I had a 1975 500 way back when. I remember well how she'd hit 4k and suddenly I was hanging on for dear life. And the smell of her...ah the memories...THANKS!

[828cc]

Glad it bought back some memories for you, cheeers, Anth :-)

[Deathklump]

Nice collection of 2-stroke bikes :) I like it that way, the Smokin' way!

[828cc]

Cheers, sadly the 2 stroke is fast becoming a thing of the past. Anth.

[Deathklump]

'Tis very sad indeed. Lucky me I live in a part of the world where two stroke snowmobiles are a quite common thing in the winters, so that I can get at least some of that good feeling :) And motocross bikes aswell, even though a lot of people are using fourstrokes instead... But take care of your nice little treasure! ;)

May I ask whereabouts you live? Not exactly, but just... approximately. :P

[171apples171]

So its ok for those bikes to smoke? They don't seem to smoke when they're driving but at idle, they smoke alot.

[828cc]

Lots of smoke is good :-) Cheers, Anth.

[FiascoRR]

One thing is for sure - theres no mosquitos arround :))))

[828cc]

...for a 2 mile radius :-) Anth

[drood78]

whahaha good one +1

[pudd750]

i have an RD350 but id most surely be careful with the throttle astride one of them - arent they suddenly on the rear tyre?

[828cc]

They di like to wheelie :-) Anth.

[snowman1692]

how many cylinders?

[828cc]

They're all triples :-)

[MRkallek91]

my suzuki pv smokes more.

really cool!

[828cc]

Check out my X7 :-)

[kawa7900]

aahh i can smell the lovely two stroke filled air , tt100 was what i used , castrol R being for the rich .

[epcotcentre]

Castrol R Racing two-stroke oil - fabulous smell, but NOT for road bikes!

[828cc]

Be a bit pricey as well with the amount this lot burn :-)

[Eric22]

I am ethernal grateful to Kawasaki for them to come up with these sensational bikes. Had a 500H1B and a 750H2B myself. Awesome, what fun and performance!!

[828cc]

The KH250 was always my favourite when I was at school, nothing else sounded like it :-) Anth.

[lezantas]

u must have the kong of these!!!750..!

[828cc]

I never bought one, was going to but the money went on a Kettle instead :-)

[Farmallnoobies]

OMG, you're my hero... i've got one of those babies, the 500, but to have 3 like that would be awesome. i love 2 strokes

[NesteHukka]

Was it, that the Kawasaki Triple got a nickname "widowmaker" for being too fast to most to handle?

[828cc]

Yep, it was the 500 (on the left) cheers, Anth :-)

[BikeMartyr]

The idle on the red S2 350 kicks out more exhaust smoke than me on my V Strom at full revs by the look of things. Nice clean runners!

Seriously though, love that sound.

Bwaaaaap :)

[828cc]

It's a sound you don't hear often enough nowadays, shame you can't smell them!! Cheers, Anth :-)

[BikeMartyr]

God, the smell of two stroke has me sniffing for hours sometimes. And I sound like such a pervert xD

[JETZcorp]

I can't decide which street bike I want more. A 750 Kawasaki, or a 390 Husqvarna with token "street-legal" gear. My dad's got a 360 Husky he uses for the street and it looks like a fun machine. Still has the MX suspension and tires!

[828cc]

Both of them will wheelie pretty good :-) Anth.

[hottr6]

His and hers, great, I love it. Quite an impressive collection. So which is your favorite?

[828cc]

It's got to the 500. Cheers, Anth :-)

[Guitarist36]

stop for the earth, fucking hell they are 2 strokes utter poetry go and hug a tree you green peace freak.

[globeliner]

Lot of polution for nothing.... they transport nobody = free polution, stop.for the earth.

[xeronicus]

a lil smoke ain't gonna hurt....I wanna go and protest a green peace rally one day with all of my buddies and our "vintage" 2 strokes....pull up 200 strong at an earth day rally and rev it up a few times, give the earth a rubber offering.....

:D

[ext3reme]

Those bikes cannot pollute as much in their lifetimes as a factory in china for 1 minute

[tutumaShell]

You can only ride one bike at a time and the amount of time you spend on it per year is really insignificant...especially if you have as many bikes as 828cc has. I think 828cc must have gray hair just from deciding which bike he wants to ride next.

[auto4union]

I`ve read thar the KH400 was a bit watered down compared to the S3 !! Maybe it had something to do with trying to meet emission laws etc !! There`s a guy restoring an H1 and he removed these quite sizeable bits from the transfer ports that Kawasaki added to quieting them down! His page is "hawasakih1" worth a look !! Peace Ye`all !!

[liamhegs]

luverly stuff wish my bike engine was sounded and smoked like them.

[828cc]

Cheers, does sound good with all 3 of them, Anth :-)

[Pernig]

I'm going to have a good fap over this before I go to bed.

[828cc]

Take it you liked the vid then :-) Anth.

[123Scears123]

Now THAT is how motorcycles should sound! Not like constipated elephants. Brilliant! I could almost smell the 2 stroke smell.

[828cc]

I don't know whether I got through more oil or petrol that day :-) cheers, Anth.

[hahasuckshitdickhead]

No effence they are beautifull bikes but the one sounds like its ready to give up the ghost

[brakenoodle]

I think the Kwakers had a raw edge that the civilised Suzuki triples never had - 'bad boy' bikes I reckon and they are absolutely brilliant.

[erroneousapostrophe]

Sweeeeeeeeet

[828cc]

Cheeeeeeeeers :-)

[petegroover]

love the big k triples,pure excitement

[828cc]

Cheers, they were certainly different to all the other '70s Jap bikes :-) Anth.

[tripleheshy]

Man, you are ONE...LUCKY....DUDE!!!! Growing up in the states in the seventies, (Indy) to be precise, these great Kawi 2strokers were EVERYWHERE. Now, you're lucky to see them at all. This takes me back to the glory days of the track during the month of May when the 500 infield was literally FILLED with two stroke machines. Thanks a ton my friend for bringing back some fantastic memories!!

[828cc]

Cheers, I'm really glad you enjoyed seeing my Kwackers, 2 strokes are becoming a thing of the past - check out my GT750 with a Piper exhaust. Did you get the Aprilia RS250 in the States? 130 mph from a 250 2 stroke, they will be a collectors' item in the future. Anth :-)

[tripleheshy]

Believe me I heard that GT beauty, what a mah-cheen. The Aprilia, I'm sure available on either coast but not here in farm country. I shouldn't say that, it's available in Chicago I'm all but sure. Thanks for the idea. Since we're all broke over here, I might as well cruise to the windy city and pick one up. No big deal, I'll just get in line for a bailout!!!! LOL!!!!!

[Disruptive302]

hey 828cc don't know if u can answer my quistion but u got alot of bikes :D..You ever heard of a 1981 Kawasaki KE 175 2 stroke?...I bought one for 450$ and they classed as vintage now There Trail/Street bikes..Somone has offered to buy it and ive only had it for 1 day :P..im wondering if u would know how much u think the bike would end up bein?..very hard to get but parts are easy

[828cc]

We had the KE over here as well, hard to say what yours is worth but there is a lot of interest in twin shock bikes at the moment. Anth.

[Suzukimad07]

how two ride a kawasaki !!

[aubreysdad07]

those are sweet!!!!!!!!

[828cc]

Cheers :-)

[honestphil777]

who needs sex lines when you can listen to this ? :o)

[828cc]

Too true :-) Anth.

[Prickface20]

People who ride 4strokes

[rgtsc01]

I had a buddy who was given a 500cc back in the late 70s that included a set of aftermarket expansion chambers to improve performance. Yeah, it was fast and sounded cool

[828cc]

They're still pretty quick up to 80 :-) Anth.

[pvfc1962]

If only ya could smell em

[828cc]

Did get a bit smokey :-)

[honestphil777]

terrific sound of the good old days when you can make much as much racket/smoke/pollution as you want :o) **** the environment :o)

[Suzukimad07]

4* awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madbiker53]

fast machines my bro had one it wo faster than a junkies giro ;]

[828cc]

The 500 is really quick up to 80mph :-)

[madbiker53]

yeah as i remember real rapid bikes ;]

[rhosey001]

Nice bikes. Mine is a 1975 Kawasaki Z1B 900. I Love it.

[828cc]

Cheers :-) Anth.

[rhosey001]

I get just under 40mpg :-)

[828cc]

Bah :-)

[sik1blud]

500cc 2 stroke? that must burn fuel like crazy lol

[828cc]

We're talking 17MPG :-)

[KFCHambone]

after this video he probably had to change 9 plugs. ahaha

[828cc]

They all behaved themselves that day :-)

[WhiskyInTheJarooo]

that green never gets old niceeee!

[828cc]

Classic never goes out of style :-)

[danielligocenzo]

i wish i had such an extensive collection of amazing machines. ill just have to stick with my RZ350 i suppose.

[828cc]

Trouble is the more bikes you get the more you have to look after!

[hultarn]

Nice bikes! I've got a -71 S2 myself, in good shape.

Take care! /hultarn - sweden

[828cc]

Be nice to see a vid of it :-) Anth.

[dwcarkuff]

very cool bikes. I have a '75 H1F in my garage. Some year I will have it on the road. would love to get the H2 and the S1. Also started riding my old Honda CB350 Four just yesterday. Great fun, not a lot of power.

[828cc]

Must admit I very rarely ride these as they're so fragile.

[whiteosh]

What a nice collection of triples!!!!!!!!

[828cc]

That's the first time I've had them all running together :-) cheers, Anth,

[rcbasher666]

more rattles than mothercare

[828cc]

Good one :-) Anth.

[indigoblue555]

500 + 500 + 250 = 1250

that's correct ? Congrats for your collection.

What about getting to 2000 adding a terrific

750 Mach IV ???!!

[828cc]

Hi, I want to try and find an H2C next, trouble is the prices are getting a bit silly. Cheers, Anth :-)

[indigoblue555]

Sorry it's 500+400+350 !!!

[828cc]

Spot on! Hopefully +750 soon :-)

[VF1000RSC16]

Great! I almost can smell the fumes

[828cc]

There was a blanket of smoke with these three running :-)

[75Z900]

2 stroke porn at it's best !

I really should get my arse into gear and get some vids of the Zed, Kettles, GS and Goldwing uploaded

[828cc]

I was waiting all Xmas to see that vid :-) Anth.

[kawasakih1]

Nice Collection...and all Running too ! Now, when you get a chance...film em blasting up and down the road. Thanks, Louis

[828cc]

We'll be wearing the leathers in the background and running the S3 & H1 round some bends just as soon as the roads dry out, I'm looking forward to it. Cheers, Anth :-)

[toilit]

WOW!! awsome bikes! love the lime green colour! you are very spoilt!!

[828cc]

Kawasaki were spot on with their colours, prettiest of all the 1970's bikes :-) Anth.

[woo738]

fucking brill

[828cc]

That sums it up! Anth :-) :-)

[LoudValves]

glorious!, I can almost smell them from here!

[828cc]

2 stroke oil and Castrol R... marvelous :-) Anth

[roadrocket]

where did you find the weather its pouring here.

[828cc]

We've been lucky the last few days, cold but dry :-)

[dlosterman]

Gr8 Anth, Some gr8 2 smokers

[828cc]

This would probably be illegal in California, the H1 does less than 20 MPG! Cheers, Anth :-)

[timberplod66]

watch out for the 350, that one really does bite!:-D

[828cc]

I think the S2 is the most fragile one, it's a genuine UK bike and I've read there was only 98 brought into the country by Kawasaki so there can't be many left. Cheers, Anth :-)

[828cc]

Lots and lots of smoke, we'll get them out on the road for a vid soon. Thanks, Anth :-)

[powerbandman]

Nice group of original triples. No mosquito problems around there! My only bike now is a '94 YZ250 for riding in the desert - pretty thrilling.

Cheers

[828cc]

What country are you in? I've got a KTM for getting muddy on! Cheers, Anth :-)

[850roadster]

Smokin!!!! Lets see you rev all 3 at once then..... Linda :)

[828cc]

I've only got two hands :-) Anth.

[Giopa88]

very good oil taste mate ;)
