I think Terblanche is back designing boats in South Africa. Funny how some bikes that are panned for their styling at the time, can end up cool, like the 999.

I like the use of the early Pantah fairing on the Psycho bike looks great.

this is my Pantah slowly taking shape

A couple of pics over the last year. Hitting the back roads on ol psycho. Except for an oil line coming loose and spraying oil onto the back tyre all has been good. In the process of changing the clip ons so they move back a bit. I don’t bend like I use too. The aero needs a lot to the imagination,at speed the front gets light. Really light. To infinity and beyond. Boucher.

Hi Chris,
Good to see you are still here.

Let me know if you are up for a meet next time you are in Sydney.

Great to see this pulled out again Chris. I had forgotten how well-done and unique it is. Read the whole post again. MikeV

Funny thing Mike, I did the same! Went back and looked at the Psycho from start to finish. Man that thing was really thought out Chris. What a sweet machine! Enjoy it my friend! Lou

Thanks mike, mikev and Lou, I’m fitting a set of tingate bars. Maybe lower the foot pegs. Gotta make it comfortable for those long miles. Boucher.

Happy new year Ducati folk. As you have probably seen on the news Australia is on fire. I took the psycho out through my old stamping grounds about 20 miles from home to see the damaged bush from the fires just before Christmas. Boucher.

Yes, we follow the catastrophe also on this other side of the world.

Small questions in comparison: a friend of mine is heading to Philip Island for the Classics. Are the risks that the situation affects it, and similar events? Can they still run the race?

Björn, Phillip Island is almost a metropolitan location & it is a small island. It is very unlikely that a bushfire to impact any services on the Island.
