Some bikes of the 70`s had a cap between the seat and the Tank, Husky have it my bsa B50 Mx has it. Freaky your a young buck you should know these thing as you race pre75 bikes. Jap bikes later had the seat moved up onto the tank, that was to save your nuts getting crushed and for the rider to move his body closer to the front. 70`s era bikes look much cooler than 1980 plus model bikes.

Sorry Freaky, if you saw the bike in the flesh you would have a different opinion. Come to geelong and have a look at Gary Adams RN 400. great bike.

I remember as a kid watching Calder Rallycross on channel O, Gary on the Suz up against the crappy CZ's of Morlang & Ryan; had a TM125 at the time, I was rootin for Gaz  :-)

But since meeting Karl & Bernie in later life, I now change my mind  :-)

I think that a twin carb Puch will set the bench mark price for rare pre '78 bikes, if you were to ever see one on Ebay.

Pre78 classes are being looked at, at the next weeks club meeting, which I feel will be excepted. There is a very nice complete running Rh 250 1975 here in Geelong that never is seen and used.

I know of a 75 that will be hitting the track sooner rather than later.

I know where there one taking shape as well. We could start our own RH Club. Just a thought, what is the point of owning anything nice to just look at and admire. You would have to use (ride) it to really appreciate the item.

A bit like having a model as a Trophy Wife, that you could not bed. What's the point?
