all my time getting used / wasted still trying to stop an icon venue going down the gurgler. But that's another story for another day 
Barra.....Barrabool? Lots of luck, that place deserves to remain as the best motocross track in the land.

I saw this bike at the last Classic Dirt at Barrabool and I must have spent as least an hour looking at it. The more I looked the more I liked.
I was (and still am) very impressed.

I must have been standing next to you Brent... I still have the pics from that day. It's a beauty!!!

If Suzuki would build it I reckon they would sell heaps of them. Who needs a bloody expensive, fragile 4-stroke...  :D

The manufacturers do, if they were relying on selling engine parts for the 2 strokes they'd all be out of business ::)
