Good Fortune!

I met him up here at the track.

And according to Cycle World the thing carves like no tomarrow with that low center of gravity. Plus with a single lung is really good on gas.

the header isn't much to look at anyways (the bike was in a barn for 30 years). besides the dan gurney cycle products label and how the four pipes come into one. looks more like a drag header but tucked up nicely. will try to get pix posted tomorrow. all i know is when i loaded it up and saw that on the header i was like WTF!! only thing i remember about him was racing in the trans am series. i think i said "dan gurney" about four times. the guy had no idea what the hell i was talking about

i got a 900 that has a dan gurney cycle products header. i am more of a car guy so this blows my mind cause i thought he mostly drove race cars. anybody know anything about this pipe? its seems like its rare, i been into kz's for many years. there is no other bike for me to ride!!

Maybe your mind was already blown

naa, i just know how to talk many languages, i prefer hillbilly over lawyer types

I got to test ride a "Gator" a couple years ago while attending a "Super motard" race at "Copper Mountain ski area" here in Colorado.. Very Cool.. Like sitting in a Go Cart w/a XR650 motor at yer back.. (also got to meet Jeff Ward & Kevin Schwantz, Also very cool ) G

I'd love to ride it, just to see if I could get it loose!

You mind snapping a few pics??? This is the first time I've heard Gurney and motorcycle in the same sentence!

I refurbished a '70 AAR for my high school senior project!!! To say I love that car is an incredible understatement!

YOU are AWESOME!!! I love those cars
