Nice, I've always liked that red and silver colour scheme.

I thought Guy Martin's bikes on the island this year (with this colour scheme) were the prettiest out there. However the addition of flame orange and fire extinguisher grey didn't improve them.

There was a guy at the PT hillclimb a couple of years back with a 250/4 replica he had made - was a beaut, used the modern 350/4 lump in a home made frame etc.  Open megas and carbs was the noisiest bike there, but was treated as a classic not a modern by the man with the noise meter...

Erm... from the early 60s until '69 I think.
