Racer at Wiseco

Post by malcolmgb » Sat Sep 28, 2013 6:33 am

Last weekend while in the US I went to the Wiseco factory where they had a Classic Bike Rally, this was among them, unfortunately didn't see the owner to ask any questions.

Malcom,
Thanks for checking out my CB72 racer at the Wiseco Vintage Rally. I'm slowly restoring it/rebuilding it.

I had a great time hanging out at Wiseco, it was a well run event:

I'm the lead tech at Northern Ohio Ducati/triumph in Akron, and I do a lot of vintage bike work:

Thanks for the reply Stan pity I didn't catch you on the day. I really enjoyed it, is it the first time they held the event?

Being from the UK always something different to see and people to speak to. I left about 2:30 just after the judging and saw what appeared to be a CL on a trailer just arriving, did you see it?

Malcolm, this was a first event for Wiseco. They kept advertisement to a minimum, as they weren't sure what kind of turn out they could handle. I'm expecting it to be huge next year. A lot of very dedicated and cool bike people there!
There was a rat CL set up for flat track, I have photos but I'll have to make time to post on Photobucket.

I would have to say that CL77 looks much more like a CB/CL160........ :-)
