interesting take on that Jim, so your saying i can have a 2001 yamaha motor in pre 75 cause they all fit in 74 Hagon frames....
i'd like a time machine too where i can get later model motors and take em back in time with me too.

Lotto numbers would be better i reckon though.

Re the Photo of Canberra Titles 2008( previous page) 250cc final #4 is Mick Gee(Cowra broke his neck following year on same track but is back on the bikes now). Clifford was aboard a MX Yamaha powered slider. Steve Croker 1st Grasy 2nd Clifford 3rd. Have not seen Clifford around lately due to some eligibity of the bike being pre 1975 didnt bother us as the man can ride & is safe to ride with.
Keep the sport alive I reckon if ya gunna be fast be as fast as ya can. They make Rules & they are meant to be Broken.

Hey Gettinold , I think only you can delete photos you've posted, not sure, but great outfit shots, more please !!

Anyhoo , I've been talking to Peter, bananas 161, about his JAP motor, and he sent me the link to his facebook page which has a shitload of photos, 187 to be exact, here's a few samples.

Just noticed that the rider on the outside is #455 Tony Day

.

Tracks I can identify in Pete's collection are Griffith, Amaroo, Nepean and Bathurst for the RR shots, riders I can identify are Pete # 161, Fraze, KP, Ian Williams and Lenny Norris.

I'll talk to Pete some more and see if I can post afew more pix.
