I'd like to thank Jay aka Tahitian Red and Robin from Shoreline.
Firstly Jay for selling me a great bike for a more than reasonable price and also for all the extra work of putting it in containers as well as the leg work for the trip from the U.S. to Oz.
Secondly, thanks to Robin from Shoreline motorcycles for getting the bike here. Safe as a bank.
Cheers guys.
Bike is in reasonable condition with the tell tale signs such as foot pegs not flogged out says its a lower hour bike.

You practicing your podium speech??

what year is a GP1?, :P

what year is a GP1?, :P
1975...approx. looks to me like a GP. (1974)
-
Stupid me. It's a GP1. Normal shock position gives it away.
-
76 has conical front wheel?,or is that for 77 model, :P
-
Mick, The GP2 (76) didn't have a conical front hub, must have been the GP3 (77).
Tim, I think it's just a phantom (74) by the look of those swing arm/shock mounts, although the original Phantom and the GP1 where almost identical except for the shock mounts where slightly foward on the GP1.
-
It's a 74 with a period up pipe. I had a choice of standard and the up pipe and decided on the up pipe for a few extra bucks.
-
I like buying bike like that...... because of all the neat crates that come with them. ;D
-
I've got a parts book for a Gp 2 if you want it 090. Not many differences between yours and a GP2.
-
What a cool ride, I love the GP Ossa's
-
a period up pipe
eeww..don't like the sound of that.
beautiful bikes those, should've known you'd find one when you mentioned it a while back. Not long till classic dirt though, I guess dad'll will be locked in the shed till the bike is ready ;D

Brad,
I'm glad you are happy with the bike! It is a pretty solid unit that just needed a restoration. I was getting worried, because it was taking so long. Looking at your Hondas I knew you would be just the man to bring her back to her past glory. I'm racing her stable mate at the upcoming Brad Lackey Nor-Cal Classic, at Sears Point.
:)
The up-pipe is a Mid-Valley CZ pipe for an Ossa Phantom. They sponsored riders like Kenny Zahrt and Rex Staten. It doesn't look as sharp a some of the modern pipes for these bikes, but it is pretty rare (I've only seen one other).
Good Luck at your upcoming event!! ;)
