Hi Alan, I could only make it out there on the Saturday, else I would have chased you up at the show and shine!

I spoke to Chris for about 20 seconds before he had to shoot thru... thus I only found out a few brief details about the TT1 1100.

If he is looking for a set 4 pot brembo P432 calipers he should look me up - I have a spare set ;)

Cheers,
MikeA

Was the Barry Sheene Festival o' Speed run as a race format or trackday with rider groups per intended velocity?

I'm gobsmacked over that MacIntosh Zook! Does it go as it looks?

Cheers

Full on racing! Teams come over from NZ (Ken McIntosh came over from NZ) for the meeting. This year there was a team from Japan. I will post photos of their immaculate Z900s later :P

Gobsmacked! Yup, the McIntosh Suzuki goes as good as it looks! Back in the day (1982 & '85) it won the Bathurst 500 Endurance race with rider - the late Dr Roger Freeth (also famous down-under for his TZ750A with an aerofoil!!!) :shock: :o :shock: :o .

FYI - You ain't been gobsmacked until you see the "Irving Vincents" that were at the Broadford Bike Bonanza this Easter weekend! I will start a new thread for the BBB shortly ;)

Detergent bottle and all, this bike is a lot faster than it looks!


Update, I chatted to the owner of this Pantah at the HBBB this easter weekend. It is a 750 and he has raced it at the IOMTT with a respectable speed of 95mph!!! ;) He says the IOM pays for the freight of the motorcycles of international entrants! Not bad, free return shipping from Australia to IOM!

Not quite the right topic but :
Mr Sheene is sitting and waiting and wondering what the f&ék the martian is trying to prove.
The martian (who has tested a few Ducati F1s) is trying to out-psych Bazza.
Cecotto is wondering why the son of his sponsor is riding Ducatis :-)

ciao
ducadini
