Maybe we could all chip in a bit of dosh to bring to OZ, because I reckon it'll bring a decent price.
Very nice.

P.S. Interestingly the rear brake & gear lever on the same side, never noticed before.

That's where Carlos got the inspiration for the numbers on his early bikes, until MA boohoo'd it all.
The more things change the more they become the same.
Still love that bike.

Always the case with US dirt trackers. Rather doubt the rear brake gets too much work, though...
