"What did the British motorcycling industry change in 1975"

"Put the gearchange on the left Simon"

"WHOT!!!"

"We are confusing the Yanks"

I don't know but I still get the creepies if I get asked to "bum a fag" or "what's under the bonnet". :pinch:

What happened to my post?...... I posted yesterday that I thought it was a 1918 Indian Scout, and now it disappeared. No edit and now my post vanishes........... Am I right 1918 Indian Scout?

Thats not fair KZCSI gets to edit. I know you are a moderator but this is a trivia thread so your answers can be changed, and have been. :silly: :ohmy:

Herbert James 'Burt' Munro
(25 March 1899–6 January 1978)
was a New Zealand motorcycle racer,
famous for setting an under-1000cc world record,
at Bonneville, 26 August 1967.
This record still stands today.
Burt Munro was 68 and was riding a
47-year old machine when he set his last record.

Working from his home in Invercargill,
he worked for 20 years to highly modify the 1920
Indian motorcycle which he had bought in 1920.
Munro set his first New Zealand speed record in
1938 and later set seven more.
He traveled to compete at the Bonneville Salt Flats,
attempting to set world speed records.
During his ten visits to the salt flats, he set three
speed records,
one of which still stands today. His efforts,
and success, are the basis of the motion picture
The World's Fastest Indian (2005),
starring Anthony Hopkins,
and an earlier 1971 short documentary
film Burt Munro: Offerings to the God of Speed,
both directed by Roger Donaldson.

Looks like there is a post clone. Methinks you posted in the other one. or Rod Serling is due any second.....

That's true on both counts. I can edit and I did edit. The first time I suggested the bike was a Duc and the second time I corrected myself to say the bike was Duc powered.

As KZRider has already said we know the no edit provision isn't fair. It just is. I know it's not the best solution but I'll correct anybody's posts that need fixin. just PM me.
