    The white #51 in picture #1 is the Scrivy ZX10 with Matt Deverall on the side, at turn 4 Baypark. Must be the first year Scrivy had it.

    Oh yea? you think AGIP in NZ as a whole sponsored this bike or a local retailer.. I'm guessing in the Agip days it was a north island bike? Worth a look, might be a bit random ringing up a shop and asking about a sidecar from the 80's/90's hehe

    Will make some enquiries anyway, you don't think the chch ones had anything to do with the bike tho eh? they might give us stickers and colors tho!

    AGIP had three main bikes from memory who were very well sponsored, this bike with Dave Beresfod and Vince Steur, Grant Ramage on a 250 proddie bike and Russell Josiah on a Superbike, they kept at it for a few years too.
    and it wasn't a North Island bike , it raced all over New Zealand.

    He really should start a progress thread to tell of his adventure.

    After washing it, Bob suggested I purchase an angle grinder. I've only just teached myself how to stick metal together (I wouldnt call it welding as it doesnt really qualify) so my pile of many bits is slowly becoming one bit again.

    Sweet, I hope you get out of bed early, I might give him a ring, I need a sponser, grinding discs cost heaps.

    haha, yea i called him day before yesterday but never got through to him. Left message and sent email...

    I'm really only interested in some history on my bike and maybe some free stickers.

    but so far no one return my calls.. im sure they are busy enough with business and have little interest in an old bike from the 80's

    Transdiesel in chch did give us a half doz balls with agip logos on em.. can use them as carb intake stoppers no stickers yet though.
    but they sponsor another bike in chch already anyway.

    Harris apparently gets support from Agip oils and so on.. he has stickers on his bike these days.
    Phil went around to transdiesel in chch to ask about stuff for our bike and they mentioned they support old harris.
    He has a wee bit of sponsorship from other places too, need to figure out what he's telling people so I can get in on that haha.
