Re: Rudi Kurth
One of Rudi's bikes that is not there is one of his early' machines from circa 1966 with the Honda 440cc 'Black Bomber' engine. the chassis was a monocoque box section IIRC with mini wheels and by contemporary standards handled like a dream
Don't suppose there are any pics of that bike anywhere

Re: Rudi Kurth
These are fantastic bits of kit, years ahead of their time. Compere these with the rubbish we were riding in this country at the same time.

Re: Rudi Kurth
Cheers Terry 
Remember that coming round the outside of us round Gerrards, we with a good bit of opposite lock and the CAT just literally drove around us as if on boodly rails 
Way in advance of its time
