You're lucky to still be around! (For those that don't know, a H2 is a 750cc 2-stroke triple - not the best "first bike"!)

I started on a tamer RD400 (2-stroke twin for you young folks). Still plenty of power to get away from a young rider (that thinks he knows what he's doing...).

We survived somehow. Probably more luck than skill in my case.
