I've thrown this one at a few of the blokes I know who should know such stuff and we all seem to agree that the frame's a Trackmaster, which is identifiable by the large diameter frame main tube 'backbone'. My mate in California  Mike Middleton reckons it's got a Triumph swingarm and Vegas Bob reckons it's a Redline swingarm so who knows?
One thing for sure...its not a Cheney, Rickman or Champion and is definitely American. My money's on a Trackmaster desert frame.

Dear old Auscobul and his pegless Honda comes to mind after seeing the above bike!
I know a bloke who turned up at Condo one year without a pipe on his Maico. He spent all weekend swapping the pipe from his 250 to the 440 and back again between races. He's a sometime member here name starting with 'old' and ending with 'school'. ;D. I remember another bloke forgetting to fit a coil to his Bultaco after an all night thrash to get the bike to Amaroo Park. Luckily he managed to borrow one.
