Is this the current design of H2 we're talking about or a new one? I got a little confused there. :oops:

Understandable, I get confused also...... :lol: This kit (the one the Suki 750 is based on) was never released. It is a stage II for 38mm carbs for the H2s.

Thanks Dave!

Been backed up with work as usual, and interest seemed low, so I haven't done much with the Suki kit.

Yeah, I think I have 5 of the 500 Titan kits out there, and it's been literally years, and not one person has done the conversion........ :?

Thought the Suki's are torquie, I think if someone actually tried a set, they would would be surprised. I have one very old customer with a stock 74 H2, though not as torquie as the Buff's, they are no slouch down low. He loves to take highway trips and went from the stock 15/47 gearing (3.13 ratio) to 17/39 (2.29 ratio), and calls the bike "his diesel".......LOL.

I never thought of that, quite possibly. I just have to have a cylinder to actually cut in for a set. From what I have heard, there weren't a lot made with that mounting format.
