they might beat us at rugby ,cricket and net ball , but I bet our Britten would toast this , it almost looks like a poor copy of the Britten

Got me ferked why we can't produce a mainstream motorcycle.

OK they are german designed - but Holden V8's are being exported to the states and if my Buell mates are any indication - they are very well regarded and I field questions about the racing from the non-nascar blinkered.

I'd buy an Australian motorcycle even if it looked like an original Hinckley bike. A large number of my countrymen would, we are more prone to flag waving than kiwis when it comes to buying straylian made.

I've sat on a Hunwick hallum cruiser that was nice as far as waaaay futuristic designs go.

I think that was about the high point of their success too.
They had a nice trailer and 2 running bikes that did the shows in 99-2000.
Last I saw or heard of them, not that i've been looking or in Aus for that matter.
They were 35Kish in 2000 from memory.

Either case they are good at racing than we are :(
