  15. The bike in question was the NR500, Mick Grant and i think Freddie Spencer rode it at the British GP at Silverstone, I believe mick's crashed and caught alight on the first lap. It was then developed into the NR750 and actually raced by journalist, and then became one of the most beautiful looking road bike's looking, I nearly brought one when Bat motorcycles had 2 for sale. Its still on my bucket list to own one , but probably will never happen!!!
