Firko, yeah i never picked up on that, had to google it [him--her] for images, definitely the same person haha.
Did you know Michael [Mike] Duff is now Michelle Duff--but that 'is' the same person!! & was still quick at Assen Reunion [can't remember when it was now--but so the story went] some bloody quick [real] girls out there nowdays too which is good to see also. Actually not just roadracing of course but MX too.
Right then, for some reason the writing under each pic didn't come up [went to great trouble to write it all up bugger it] so i'll set to & add the details separate. Cheers. [ps great calendar that one]

I like this one.
2000000hp and pushy brakes.
Must have been a joy to ride. :o

Enjoy---the line across all the pics is my camera fault.
I remember reading all the names [bar a couple of enduro ones] from back then when we used to wait with baited breath for the next edition of [whatever it was] english MCNews etc]. Cheers.

Youtubed the RC116 50cc twin, man what a sound--no flywheel effect 'at all' & a super high first gear that must be hard on the clutch. Back then in the m/cycle news from england there was a very thin flexible record of the Honda 6 and MV & the like from the IOMTT wrapped up in one edition. Sounded great too with rear wheel skipping on bumps with the revs altering momentarily--lost the record now damn it, was gonna wait till everyone's asleep then let it rip on the stereo---maybe not, could be fatal.
