They Called Them Superbikes...

Paul Ritter: http://www.theriderfiles.com/?p=6477

I met Paul at the Ducati Revs America Rally in Las Vegas in 2001.He was an invited guest along with Cook Nielson, Paul Smart and others . I got them to sign my T-shirt and Paul was a little shy about it since I didn't immediatly recognise him.
He did sign the shirt and I'm glad of it.
I haven't worn the shirt since , it's for the "museum".

Hope todays riders go out on a limb for the fans as back then. Russell @ Laconia

Love this thread. Thanks for posting the Klinzmann MK2. Been looking for a nice shot of that for ages. Here my modded z900 its a great everyday/work bike. Looking forward to hear and see more of the Vetter hacked up frame bike.

Fantastic looking bike!!

I worked at Racecrafters, and had yellow stickers, but none of my bikes looked that good!

front rotors,,Morris Mags,,,to three spoke Dymag

fork brace,, S&W rear shocks,,,,,to ,,,,,Fox Piggy Back

Some good pics of the MK2 and S1 Racecrafters. When I was looking for pics for my project it seemed that parts of the bikes changed every meeting, suppose it was a case of change to improve. I'd love to see more RC pics if lobsta.

Thanks for the comments on my bike, cheers
