John says... I nearly bought one of those once, immaculate it was. I bought a nice GS750 instead. I love the quote "High technical standards" while casting the camera over row upon row of GT triples. Who the **** were they trying to kid.
Nope. DKW/Hercules made quite a good one in the early/mid 1970s, but the firm went bust shortly afterwards. Van Veen, a Dutch maker, produced a colossal one in the mid-1970s.
Don't think so. Road text painting in English but line markings in Foreign. Lotsa sprot bikes, so fairly wealthy.
I was wondering if it was Ireland. As you say, they were driving on the right side of the road, but I don't recall seeing advisory speeds painted on the roads before, nor the red diagonal markers into tight corners. My only venture on Japanese roads was by bus... Also I assumed all the 40s were mph rather than km/h. -- Ivan Reid, Electronic & Computer Engineering, ___ CMS Collaboration, Brunel University.
