I saw him at a couple of rounds of the transatlantic trohpey here

It's Anton Mang
picture is taken from the cover of Motorcycle Sport monthly Nov 81' . He'd not long taken the crown off Kork Ballington

Mang was 250/350 champ in 81 (not 500 champ)

silly boy
Mick Cole, he'd only just secured the ride with Honda Australia, it was the first outing and he cleaned up
FUN LOVIN CRIMINAL
possibly but it's still Mang on the bike check the leathers (name on the back).
The Actual quotation that goes with the photo says :New World Champion Anton Mang has taken the mantle of Kork Ballington and is now busy in the 500cc fray
