Super fast on the straight aways little scary in the turns...
Where's the toilet roll holder?
I convinced a guy who had one to let me ride it i had s1 250 which was nippy but fck that 750 turned me white with fear when it gets in the power band dammmmm I got back owner was laughing , awesome bike ,
cripple triple !
That looks easier to ride than my brother's stocker was. I couldn't keep the front end down
Still have a chrome Denco for a H-2.
The Denco equipped 750 H2 is the most feared tripple 2 stroke in them days. Ring-a-ding-ding-ding gone!

Wow that looks like loads of fun 😁

Ridden and raced although one had to find a solution to the pipe-grinding and drum-brake fade. My R5 Yam gave them a torrid time in the twisties. I have clippings showing the R5 ahead of several H1's back in my racing days.

Microns !! They just look better

End cans on the spannies look like they've drooped??
The cans on the pipes need to be angled up more to match the tailpiece and decals on the side panels look pretty shit as they are
Microns sound better
I need it

Something about the early GT750's that appeals more than the later ones. Never sure whether it's those 70's Candy colours or that front drum brake which hints back to the 60's. Going to be honest and say I much prefer these - what do you reckon?

Great bikes, probably underrated - Mine would pull from 1,000 rpm to over a Ton (on private roads, natch!), and used to do 55 to 60 to the gallon. I preferred it to the RD350 because it had so much more torque at low revs that it was a doddle to ride fast.
I had one. It was nicely modified and went exceedingly well. In fact it could be a downright hooligan.
that's a 72.
Had two of them. Total thrill at 17 yrs old in 77. Bought another & restored it when 25. Great memories ! Fab Yam 2 stroke twins !!
Awesome bike but No one knew how to tune it properly ..I figured it out due to understanding..I loved it !!
Looks just like my old DS7.
Loved ‘em. Ignore the timing marks. Use a dial gauge, 1.8mm BTDC if my memory still works.

Apaches are in the plains ,Big horns too .
I’ve ridden several of these. Also the F8 250s also. They were very popular in our circles back in the early- mid 1970s
I had a friend, Leo Whittin, from Portales, NM. He had one in a Trackmaster frame. I feel like the motor was 'heavily breathed on'. Whatever: it was a ROCKET!!!!!
My lower end went twice
Speakin of old 2 stroke Kawies, anyone remember the Green Streak? Here's one I am passing at the TT track at Deming, NM, 1970. The F21M had some potential: 238cc two stroke with rotary valve, lightweight tubular frame.
Yea I have. Really love it. Won the open class TT scrambles race on one of these at Deming, NM, 1973. It was a loaner bike from my fav Las Cruces bike shop: Beyer's Jeep and Kawasaki. Not this race, but only pic I have of that track: 250 class, 1970, # 23.

Electric water pump? 🤔
Whole engine fits, and a lot easier. A mate did one in the 80's.
Used 250 lc barrels as I had two sets 350 lc ones harder to get

I had one just like this I sold it about 10 years ago one of the best riding bikes I ever had one of the best bikes probably ever built that's all I got to say about that awesome power valve seat suspension

They were great winter bikes in the UK, you could bend bars/pegs straight with a bit of scaffold tube. Reliable as with Piranha ignition fitted
I had a black one of these in 1984. It was a 1977 one. Cost me £75 I think. I had a GS550 at the same time too. I ended up riding the CZ more as it was more entertaining.
Really good bikes if they were well maintained. As David Post says, Piranha ignition helped a lot.

I had one in black when I was still at school. Good bike but I preferred my fizzy
Quicker than a Fizzy and had 5 gears.
Nah... smoked a few on my fizzy though. 😉
My first road bike, 16 years old. All my mates had restricted Peds, I rocked up on one exactly like that one. They all sniggered at how old fashioned it looked until I took off from the lights 😂
No but my mate had one and it was quicker than my Fizzy
OWD 828R. Is it still breathing..?
O yes 65 to 70 mph would be worth some money now 🤦♀️
4k for s#ity peddle moped…. NEXT..!!
I had one in 1976 after smashing up my Maliguti 50 motor cross, we used to ride it across the playing fields where Rumney rugby club is 3 abreast!! No fear and stupid in those days. It took any punishment that was thrown at it.
Yes, same colour, went through several little end bearings, smashed my leg badly after a collision with a 3 day old Ford Granada!
My ap 50 was faster than your fizzy, no mate, no my fizzy was faster than your ap 50, no mate the ap 50 was was faster than the fizzy and it handled better, no no mate my fizzy was............. did it ever end?
No,I did not.
Bought one exactly the same TOY 400R got it a few months b4 my sixteenth to beat the restriction to 30mph 😀 £240 brand new
Yes, had a red one in 1976. 225 pounds from Park Motorcycles in Hampden park near Eastbourne can't remember the reg
regularly got 55 56 mph from my 1977 ap50 . really good Japanese bikes
Glen Price you had a blue one?
Same year and same colour. Cost me £10 but then found the gearbox was really iffy...took a good month to get used to finding 2nd without missing it. Great bike tho
I had a red one OJG 901R still on DVLA last taxed 83
Yep. Had one in 78. Rode from Shropshire to Durness, Sutherland in the summer holidays. Went from that to a Bonnie in 79.
GSF 592T ..red ...governed by then , 28 mph downhill with a cyclone at your back .....wish I still had it .....
No I had A FS1e
I could have cried when they stopped the ap 50 and brought out the ridiculous x1 50 but I suppose when the restriction laws came into force, it was about time for a complete change.
Yes mine was blue
Had a blue one always good for 50mph

Love reading these posts about the 69 H1 Blue Streaks. I was a young dumb kid of18, my third bike. No one told me how horrible they rode and the death wobbles and all. I put 32,000 miles on Northern California twisties , with no helmet, cruised it all over the place ......... with out a helmet no less. 😁
Looks fast just sitting there
Had one in 1977 . So fast
Nice ride 💯
Overpowered in my opinion . But a rocket
If you don't own one you will never know
Better machine
750 way faster

The frame was flimsy. I would loved to transplant the engine into a Featherbed, Rickman or Dresda frame so it will handle as well as the engine performs.

I’ve an X5 now. It’s a neat little bike. The X7 does have a lot more power but is more highly tuned. Ask yourself really want a classic bike with weak brakes and crude suspension to cane it? I’ve a modern sportsbike. My X5 is great for zipping around the neighbourhood. I’ve done my work commute on it a few times but it’s over 40 years old.
Mark Hall you know you want it
I had a blue one brand new, SRU 645X. Bargain £525 on the road at the time. Just looked it up and not taxed since 1987
I could never see the point of an x5 back in the day ; I had an x7 but I would love an x5 now cheep insurance good little bike
Fabulous bikes. I had a yellow one. The two stroke sound and smell mmmmmmmmm. Surprising these days how small the bike is compared to when we were 17
