If you have log books for the parts and can make a complete bike well I guess that should count.

Took a walk around the paddock and Grandstand this lunch time, saw a couple of XBR`s parked amongst some stunning bikes including about 10 BSA Goldstar`s. The XBR`s were both UK reg`d, one has faded red paintwork the other was a very tidy black one with immaculate original pipes on it and around 6.5k miles! Fizzy`s, LC`s, GT 380, Guzzi`s, BM`s, Laverda`s, Morini`s, you name it, it seemed to be there! And the weather is holding out so far  ;)

Well I don't no, is it road legal?
Right lets get this into the correct context, all bikes that are eligible to be ridden on the road legally and have a logbook, ie either SORN or Taxed.  Hum! well I have one bike on the road and a frame that has a registration document, now let me think!!!!!

Hi silver, when you say "most of em were at the mgp" I take you mean XBR,s not ikuzawa,s?? Still to see one being used in anger. So if any one out there knows of any that are being raced (ikuzawa,s that is) please drop me a line and let me know. Thanks Michael
