Ablolutly awsome ! The name of the bike throws me off a bit. It looked lioke an OW48 like the one he beat Sheene on at Silverstone in 79'. Also the 1980(OW48R) bike had reversed outer jugs, as in the carbs faced forward on the outside cylinders and the pipes went straight back resulting in a 6hp gain. The machine here had the far left pipe snaking behind the carbs, BBQ-ing the air, then dumping on the right side of the bike. And these bikes never made 150hp :shh: :shh: :shh: .
