Hey Gary, any chance you remember/recognize the bike Paul acquired recently, as talked about and pictured in this thread : http://www.ducatittandf1.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1009 ?? It was built by Bud Rodgers, who also owned my Harris TT for a while. Mine was originally owned and AFM raced by Art Chambers. Bill p.s. Keep your great pictures coming. |

Hi Bill, I do not recognize the bike, they all changed so much from race to race back then so it's hard to tell. I know my bike changed several times and almost always for the better. The big bore kit was not a good change, the motor needed constant attention so we went back to stock barrels with race pistons. Making money running a bike shop is tough enough but when too much time is spent on the race bike is kind of negative cash flow problem. Hi Lou, I believe it was an Ohlins shock that we kept a tank of nitrogen around for, also used in the tires. Gary

Thanks Gary. Figured that was probably a long shot. How big was your big bore kit and isn't a negative cash flow pretty much a given when racing? The fun you have is priceless, but you still have to eat. Bill |
