The Magnum 4 was specifically designed to take GSXR engines so is a little later than frames designed to take whopping great aircooled lumps:)

Thanks dezza, I now recall they were exclusive to the gsxr motor.

Does anyone remember bills spondon on news at ten in about 1985??? They even interviewed him. It was introduced as the fastest motorcycle on earth:(

Wasn't one of those two 'Blue' bikes made for/featured in Streetfighters magazine back in the day - there was an A3 poster of Steve Burns doing a wheelie possibly from the same magazine - regards Kev

Still in Ireland because of who's bike it was he wanted 15k, and from the pictures he sent me it was parked up and left derelict in the corner :o

Thats not true. Was up for 12k, which is pretty reasonable for a absolute beast of a bike. It had been well looked after and completely refreshed, it was just wheeled into a barn for the photos.
