Re: Debbie & Ian Salter
The wheels on your bike were Trevor Iresons, so he would be able to supply discs.Confirmation could be gained from Pete Allebone or John Perkins.Pleased that the old girl is still performing.

Re: Klaus Enders Busch Chassis
Tappo you have seen this bike ridden,it is a copy of George Rosges who used to parade in Belgium.Sadly Dieter restricted him to 8000rpm due to lack of rennsport spares, but a good colour scheme is all you need to get noticed.

Re: Pre T.T. classic
only for the classic club, this is not recognised by the acu or other clubs. As a non member I am led to believe the idea was to differentiate the two classes which currently run concurrently.
