I know Hoony , but the ad on here still has a very good ranking in google , because it is very rare . You can always call me on +61 8 82848033 should you be interested ;) I am aware there is less than a handful potential serious buyers globally . This way they know its still out there and they can call anytime when they are ready , that is the aim of the post .Last time it was on Fleebuy the players had a ball , so I cant be bothered with that anymore . Now they all know where it is , whos it is , what its done and how much it is . ;D

The good old forum has done it again. The bike and parts have now finally been sold. I knew it would be a hard sell, due to its rarity. Thanks to the forum and its google rating, the ad has been number one for a few years. But finally, out of the blue, the son of a GP rider I used to race against in Europe, e-mailed me and wanted to know if it was still available. We agreed to a fair price including all spares. So glad it is going back to where it came from and its history +glory can now live on. So many times, I was close to take it down to Sims…. instead of handing it to a low baller that would run it into the ground. Facebook, eBay, market place, they just attracted those type of time waisters. Like a few times in the past, the forum was always the best source of advertising and for free. I can now finally close that chapter and move on. Happy days. I will miss that bike in a way, it has taken me to places in the world I would have otherwise never been to. It has opened doors and many friend ships. I got married on it and then later has given the family reasons to travel together in Australia doing the odd race.The fond memories of that endless power and the sound of a Ferrari will stay with me forever. What a privilege it has been.

Hoony , I restored that aircooled beast around 2005. Never liked that handling and concept . Sold it to a racer in Lichtenstein and it is still in use today for pre 85 races . 1000cc and no reed valves. Its nothing or all ;)

So glad my old bike has a new lease of life and its history goes on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWVxOc5GsFY

Nice track, shame all these fast flowing tracks are gone in Oz, the only exception i know is Conondale.
what is the idea of that rubber back thing at the entry to track...to control amount of riders at any given time ?

Hoony , thats to make sure you are paid up, have permission to be out and it does the lap times for you. That SOUND .still goes down to my wrist .(That does not happen often anymore)Fresh pistons and he is running it in using the two exhaust system. I told Mike to change to the two into one system . That makes it sing and weighs a few kilo less + more room in the chair.So happy all ended up this way. Yes the tracks in Australia never let me go higher than second gear......Go stop go and full stop again in 50 meters.....The continent with the most vacant land and the smallest tracks .... Never mind its in the past for me now.Great to be able to still hear it. A petty about the green plastics, it takes some history away , But hey , its Mikes bike now . Even his dad told him the same .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt2_4D5ZKA0 Watch this video from Zaltbommel . I remember going to the startline with 39 other chairs waiting (i think it was 1988 ) at 9.30 PM and the sun still up at 11Pm . Started off smooth ground and by end of the race meter deep holes.You back off and you are going over the bars.Thats sand for you.
