Ok you’ve just out cooled the coolest of cool things. Steve is my hero. Did he touch it? Don’t say he rode it. My head will explode.

Thanks for the replies and likes guys!
Can't say that Steve rode it or touched it - but can't say he didn't either, there's always a lot of "Giz a go on yer bike mate" when bikers get together.
The US team were very friendly with the Brit team in 1964 as it was their first ISDT and they were obviously after some hints and tips.
The rider of 270 was Arthur Bates in 1964, he was a top Brit rider, pic below is Arthur right and Steve left having a chinwag.
Another of Arthur with Steve star gazing behind him.
And another at a check point, Steve far left and Arthur far right, another one of the US team kneeling.
I've not ridden it yet, got to get it running properly as a winter project.

Still fairly new to motor biking.
Undertook and passed my first CBT in about 1997 - but went for a car license shortly thereafter so the CBT cert expired.
Undertook and passed my second CBT in early 2019, bought a 125 and had a lovely summer of riding to and from work, with a view to doing my tests in 2020.
Covid kicked in, I had nowhere to ride to, and subsequently my CBT cert expired as training schools weren’t open, and there was no elongation of the certificate.
Undertook and passed my third CBT in June 2021, passed my theory in September 2021, but due to work commitments, family illnesses and general life stuff - haven’t ridden until just last week.
Plan is to undertake a bit more training and take the next 2 tests before my current cert expires!
Here’s my Mutt Hilts 125

Was working on other one. New discs and pads, piston seals, oil and filter. She said thank you.
