Oh, and of course the OTHER interesting thing about that machine is that(I believe so anyway) it was the first motorcycle to feature "Center-Hub Steering", an innovation that was somewhat revived in the early 1990s by the Italian firm Bimota with it's "Tesi" model, and a few years later by Yamaha, in association with motorcycle designer James Parker, with the Yamaha GTS1000, just like the one Derek Mosher(SalMaglie) currently owns down in Tucson.
(and I knew ALL o' THAT, Mr.Echoance, WITHOUT havin' to have a book in front o' me, dude!!!)
