Now a few questions are being asked about what this concept is about, I will put my money where my mouth is and build one. I have a lot of the parts and only need a strong stock engine. I will seek a bit of help if its available. It will have the look we are trying to represent. I shall try and have it ready by tghe Southern Classic.

I geg to differ about the current batch of P5 machines being even close to 1975 machines. |

What about the Hondas in Period 4. They're typical mid-seventies AMA superbikes. |
