How many Harris frames are there in Australia?

And even more interestingly, how many people have them on the road?

I believe V2 in Brisbane imported 6 TT kits back in the 80's. (not Vee Two in WA)

I have only seen 3 in Qld so far. 2 Cro-Mo frames and one aluminium spar version, Ken Taylor up in the Sunshine Coast had a Paso fitted to it with a ZX6 or ZXR front end The other 2 are TT2 style, i.e. 680/600 SL engines. One was in North Queensland with a 680cc hi-comp engine, dry NCR clutch, big 41mm Dell'Orto's OWO1 forks etc etc and the one in Brisbane was at V2 with stock 600cc I think standard 35mm forks etc

Kens bike is a pretty special rising rate frame with a ZX9R front end.
Where have you seen the Ally spar model?

I recall seeing it at the Gold Coast, single sided swingarm (looked like Harris) it had 4V engine, I think it was 888
looked pretty neat
