Would have lusted after that back then...but now it doesn't do that much for me.

Wouldn't say no though!.

As above. Henry Abe wheels look lush, less so the rest of it.

Now I like that - I'm not sure that my elbows would let me ride it more than a couple of miles though ...... :(

Well I like it very much - Reminds me a bit of the 70's FLF (Flow Line Fabrications) bikes.
In fact my mate had a flf KH400 version although I think most, at the time would have been 250's.

Well my elbows are totally banjaxed (particularly my right which I broke in 1988 and consequently can no longer straighten my arm) but I still manage to ride my little runabout (pic attached). You just have to have the right attitude/be a complete lunatic/be nearly 69 years old and a total fruit-loop. :crnk

H2? Nice. I want one. Not because I need one, and itd probably bugger my neck, but I still want one. Just because of what it is.

There is an H2 in my local bike shop for sale 20k. https://www.spendersmotorcycles.co.uk/

Originally I did not like the style but its growing on me!

Having had another look at that H2 it looks like it's got Akra headers (same as mine). If so, that's quite a good price as the headers alone cost me £2K+.
