Dacka's bike?

[Ktm181]

dacky is a bit hard to get hold of, but you could speak with Ross McWatters from McWatter Racing Developements (find him on google search) he was looking after the Yamaka racing team back then i think, he is a nice bloke and will be happy to answer your questions, he lives in the Sydney area still.

Oops, Rosco would be annoyed!  Got the name wrong AND forgot to post his phone number- 0406 448 455.

RING HIM, he will know if they stamped names on engines or not, he will have been the guy doing the stamping!
On a sad not he know rides Kawaks himself!

The swing arm seems to be a modified standard unit which is odd

Have you never seen a pic of a swingarm on a factory bike?

Thats right, a lot of factory stuff looked home made and agricultural and not mass produced by robots.

 Hi maybe able to explain the bike, I worked very closely with procycles & yamaha teams at that time, guys like dack etc usually had many cylinders ported for different power delivery etc( SX & outdoor), they were usually marked A,B,C. also all ex race bike are returned to almost standard so secrets dont get out & insurance reasons, hope this is of help , cheers middo

Yeah I know someone in WA who was mates with Dack at the time who scored one of his team bikes.... it was basically rebuilt stocker when it turned up with new plastics.

Yeah your correct middo i was a riding buddy of Glen Bell's during the 80's & that's exactly what happened to his bikes. Frank Pons was his mechanic & he carried out a lot of his work through Pro Cycles.
