Re: Wanna buy an historic RC?

I've been thinking about how the current racebikes are slowly coming back to some of the styling cues of the past, and these bikes really illustrate it. Compare the cropped tails of this era to the new 800 GP bikes...what's old is new again...

Hopefully this bike winds up in a collector museum somewhere...
