    F5dave is half right with the endurance team members, The actual team is Kawasaki France Team. and both riders were poms

    The concept bike was shown at the 1980 Cologne Bike show, it was designed by Porsche based on a Yamaha SR500 for M&M Chocolates.

    So far we have:

    1) Kiwi Helmets (OAB)
    3) Aaron Slight on board a ZXR750 (OAB)
    4) SR500 (Eurodave)
    5) Terry Rymer & ? (F5Dave) half right who's the other person?
    6) Terry Vance from Vance & Hines and Drag racing fame (F5Dave)
    8) Loris Caparossi (sAslex)
    9) Russ Collins (Eurodave)
    10) 1994 (sAslex) though info varies


    So what about 2) & second half of 5) and 7)

    clues: 2) Is an American . 5) both riders were English . 7) Mod

    who's going to piece it all together ?

    2) Initials FS set the AMA superbike racing alight in the early 80s then went on to 500GP

    5) mmm can't see through the F--

    7) Someone also wrote articles for Streetbike Magazine under this name.

    I knew the concept was Porsche-built. Remember the news release...

    Photo 2 is Fast Freddy (who won the 250 AND 500 GP titles in the same season)

    The senior KB'er is Ixion.

    Terry Rymer rode with Carl Fogarty

    And, as an aside, FFM were based in Waihi, not Wanganui - that was Star Helmets.
    ACC - It's where the Enron accountants all went.

    Tis true but if i was after either of those it would have been what helmet brands were/are produced in NZ .

    the 'Kiwi' Brand Helmets are almost a luxury helmet & have a trick looking Kiwi emblem on them. actually one of the most comfy helmets i've ever used

    looks like everyones getting a bit
