I think its xsjohn.................having gotten tremendous verbal abuse for his radical engine tuning ideas, now believes he needs full leathers to protect from physical violence

Bit hard to make out. Would it be the magnificent John Surtees (75 years young today), the only man to win a motorcycle gp championship as well as a formula 1 championship? (3 x 350cc gp, 4 x 500cc gp & 1 F1)
I heard he had been doing a few demo rides!

+1 for Surtees. He'd feel right at home on those Nortons.

I dunno, Guys. He seems to --well, "buff" to be Surtees....I think.
C'mon, Snake--who is he?

Oh, I dunno, Yamaman---probably any racer would like to be mistaken for John Surtees, don'cha think? Unless, of course, you are Mike Hailwood or Phil Read or Peter Williams.....
