Nice link Padmei.

Not quite vintage, but definitely old school, for me the DR750/800 is one of the coolest looking old school Dakar bikes ever made, monstrous awesomeness

They are cool aye "Dave"

Maybe when I get mine mobile again you can have a wee pootle. Actually..... it would be the perfect mule for you to cart all your crap around on.

FYI... the yellow bike won the rally of Dalmatia last year ( I think) and there is a guy in Ireland making a replica of the Marlborough one

Very Cool
