OK now I've got it! You are very observant K man. I've never seen it before but I agree it matches the logo on the lever covers. Perhaps someone can help with an even better picture. J

Nice photo Firko. Looks like a Trans AMA race somewhere by the white background on the plates. By the way go back a couple of posts and check out the logo on Jims shirt that KB picked up on. What do you reckon? Was it perhaps a fore runner of the Muira range of after market accessories?? J

I meant the round logo with what looks like a bit of roost on the bottom,    If you check the signed pic with his arms crossed the bike in front of him, on page 22   the lever covers on the throttle side,  blue cover with a round yellow/gold logo, the transam pic shows half the logo,   the last pic red shirt/ yellow round logo matchs the lever cover, sorry for the mix up mate.

It's the logo for University Bultaco/CZ in Seattle, Washington.  They must have been a local sponsor of Jimbo's.

You can see a pic of the jersey at this link:  http://www.wsmchof.com/interview.html

If anyones interested she's nearly finished. I'm just looking for a pair of Telesco's off a MK7. If anybody can help I would appreciate it. Any condition as I'm happy to refurbish as required. I also have to paint the tank and I'm looking for a stencil to replicate the "curve" of the paint between the silver and red if that makes sense and can anybody confirm if there was a black pinstripe to seperate (hide the join!) between the two colours. Thanks Jerry

   Jerry, If you have any problem getting a stencil or if you need a reference where to place it or paint, i have taken measurements from the centre of the bultaco badge to a few points along the front curve (from original)which i used when i repainted the silver top on my mk5 -cheers

Getting towards the end of the project but looking for a pair of Telesco shocks (any condition) as well as info on what was the throttle that came on the Mod 120 MK7 Bulty and if anybody has one they want to part with. I'm planning to drag it up to CD9 if anybody wants to have a look. Cheers Jerry
