I'll thinks he was the last one to do something like that by him self.
Now days the only pie by them self, most of the time :-D

Great pics, especialy at The Caf?.

Of topic a bit. Heard why Hakans YZ was aircooled, at 74hp there was no need of watercooling :evil:

Hi Doordie

I would like to see some of that flashformat to. I'm not the biggest fan, getting more and more intersted in him.

I've hurt that Carla had ridden a watercooled YZ, but he prefured the aircooled. And that there were only 5 watercooled
YZ500 ever made.
