remember an article in Classic Racer,there was a guy roadracing one of those twins,can't remember if it was back in the day,or later on?,actually think it was both,they both came out of retirement,thinking it was a light blue in colour,bloody weapon,think he got points in GP's too, 8),
work,the curse of the racing class!!
if a hammer dosn't fix it,you have a electrical problem!!
