In Nov `83 Motorcyle Mechanics mag did an H2 retropective, including a dyno test,P.66;
"...1st run the bike on the LEDAR dyno to see whether all those stories of phenomenal power outputs were anything other than the bull we had always assumed them to be...being more sceptical than most, I went for 47 bhp. It would have been difficult to have been more wrong. The dyno recorded a maximum output of 65.4 bhp at 7,500 rpm..."
& "To put it in perspective, the H2 accelerated about as hard as a modern 750 4-stroke 4, which for a 10 year old bike, is not bad at all."
