I'll just clarify that by saying the noises have to be that of bikes...

Bad video, great sound... although it isn't a H1 but it's close... IL4 kwaks (of the older variety) just hit that spot for me.
I dream about owning a ZX750R H1... one day in the near future perhaps, there will be one NEXT to my storm in the shed!

Being called for Sunday dinner does it for me.
But why is it that girls who say "Oh, God, it's so BIG!" have to squeal so much?
Ruins the moment every time.
Just a normal conversational tone would do it.

It's just that they are sometimes put off by the tiny pillion perches on modern bikes, and very much appreciate a more roomy seat.
Why, what were you referring to?

Opel,
H1, lovely bike, but the worst mistake I made, well bike wise anyway was getting rid of my R.
If I can figure out how to put up a photo I would...
Still, I know the chap who got it from me and he has not even had it fired up in the 5 yrs he has had it- might pester him to gete it back.. not sure where i would keep it- too big to use as a coffee table in the house!!
...although opening a tin of lager on a hot day comes close too....
.....and the noise of me tearing my head out trying to embed the freakin' things grrr!

Clivey, your Youtube links don't work. Try redoing them with the 'long version' found under options on the video share bit...
I'm very much looking forward to them! And an H2 will do for me..
I really want one you know, it's like an itch that needs scratching ... but I'll have to wait, just a bit longer.
Hmm... Nice. I use to 'love the smell of 2 stroke oil in the morning' but it's something that has--for me at least-- passed into history.
Love the image of the H2 and if you're still up for some more You Tube playtime...

Incidentally, the guy has a real tallent for video production I thought, and although the (very good music) is a little loud, he does fade it tastefully when required! Yet you must laugh at all the Cavaliers

Still struggling to post the links though - can't see what I'm doing wrong!

Tell me this is a very old video. I know the road as you joined the M4 and passed through the tunnel. If I'm not mistaken that is the brynglas tunnels at newport

Not sure if its fate or not, but got a phone call yesterday from my bro to say the chap who has my R is being hen pecked into getting rid of it seeing as he has not moved it in 5 years- needless to say that I am on first shout if it does come up - guess the kids are going without pressies this christmas then
