He's sitting there with some pretty impressive names alright - Carruthers and Rayborn.Caruthers was maybe one of the most influential guys of the period,but like,who the hell is he? Wild Dave Aldana,before the ''skeleton'' leathers.

The skeleton leathers are here http://www.superbikeplanet.com/image/archive/aug2004/j/

but so is Fogarty and that might put some people off.


Carruthers did a hell of a job tuning KR Snrs bikes after he quit racing himself.

Superbikeplanet.com is one of the sites I check regularly for news and they keep posting old archive stuff too. Wonder when they'll show Geoff Perry or Graeme Crosby?
