Hi Gary, this is what this Forum is all about! Digging up these cool old photos and documenting these rare machines. This looks like a rising rate suspension Harris. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks again Gary, keep them coming. Lou

Yes Lou thats one of the Harris "Rapide" framed bikes. John Campained it in 1987 BOTT season. It has the later alloy swing arm. The earlier kits had gussetted steel. As far as I know two of the Chassis came to the US through the "importer". Steve Wynn would be the guy to answer how many made. I wonder if john still has the bike? Thanks gary for the pick. As you know Im trying to get the "other " bike together and will cretainly study this example.
