A few questions :

1) Who is it ?
2) Where is it (circuit and corner) ?
3) When was it ?
4) What is of particular interest / notable about this outfit ?
5) And for any complete anoraks; who did this outfit belong to ?

Post your answers up and I'll let you know in a day or two. :!:

It ain't Mick Staiano's JC and Mike.

Steve, 1989 it is ! September to be precise.

So now we're just looking for the owner; maybe a little obscure but a former sidecar racer who has done the TT (but not on this particular outfit).

I can remember your dad telling me after riding the bike, that the engine was too far to the right in order to aligne the chain. He said it wasnt very good around lefts (a bit of a pain if your at Scarborough), he obviosly wasnt impressed as he rode 350s till he got the Jacobs. Come to think of it they werent very good on lefts either :D :D :D .
