Here's another flat tracker that's headed for Australia and no, neither Jonesy or me have bought it (but it is a popular forum member ::)).................It's a very rare but fugly Yetman 750 Trumpy with a lot of history.

Here is one I prepared earlier. I have since discovered that the bike is much faster than me. So I'm currently working on a XT 500 for DT purposes that shouldn't scare me as much!!

Sorry Punchy I've only just noticed your previous comment.
Although I have a soft spot for the T500 & 250 deep down I'm a 4 stroke man, I've had a fair bit of time to think over the last 12 months, dangerous, and I'm gunna cull a few projects including the T20 250 Flattracker.
That is one sweet XS, where is that photo taken?

Will you be at HBBB at Easter Flattracker? I missed seeing the bike in living colour last year but remember it in primer the previous year. I'll have my little 360 Yammy Fasttrac....no room on the trailer for any other stuff.

I am hopping to get to Broadford, but alas not to ride. I have had a shit start to the year with three lots of neurosurgery so far, but I seem to be on the mend now. If I get there I will be sure to say gday.

Sorry to hear that, I hope you're on the mend. I missed last year because it was the beginning of my year of shit-healthwise. I'm reasonably OK now so I hope you soon can be too.

Why not bring the bike along and put it on display. Seeing we're trying to promote these bikes it would be good to show what you can do with a stock frame when its done properly. You've displayed your Maicos in the past so why not bring the big girl. ;D I'm sure you've got some mates that can do the heavy lifting for you.
