Could this be the Silver Bullet?
82 OZMX champs at Toowoomba.
not sure of the rider.



Based on the number it must be Ribbo !

Very nice Pete.  When are you going to dig some trenches with it?

Err, there's a whole other thread about the bike started by Paul when it was listed. See the thread under this one.
Cheers,

Just doing a bit of peaking around, ;D  Did Hans Apelgren ever ride(supersenior) or he's an importer of Husqvarna's to Aust. ?

Hans was the Husky importer until 2000ish, when the Paul Feeny Group took over. The business morphed into R&D Motorcycles, although I have NFI whether Hans is still involved - his son Stefan still works there though. Hans was heavily involved with Motorex, so maybe that's how he spends his time now?!

Hans was a rider of some note back in the day. He raced Mr MX in the 1970s, and enduros in the 80s (and at least until the early 90s).
