Four years ago today our little forum came into our lives. Happy birthday, little fella! 🎂🎉🎈

I bought a loosely assembled pile of parts dragged from the back of a garage where it had resided for more than 30 years. Essentially, a slimline frame with mostly Commando cycle parts and parts for a 1934 CS1 Cammy engine. I got very excited about the prospect of a Manx style racer until I checked out the price of CS1 parts and realised I was about £10,000 away from a running motor.😂 Anyway I found a nice little 6T Iron head motor and decided to go for a Triton cafe racer.

He went on to win 21 AMA National Championships and more than 50 non-AMA titles; a record that will never be equalled. By the time Jim retired in 1936 he had raced in more than 1,500 events and covered 30,000 competition miles.

In 2013, BMW completed the sale of Husqvarna to Pierer Industrie, owner of KTM, and later that year the whole kit and kaboodle became a subsidiary of KTM itself, which is where it stilll sits…for now.

Today in 1997, little Francesco Bagnaia began his journey towards the 2022 and 2023 MotoGP World Championships. Beaten last year by the exemplary performance of Jorge Martine, he was composed and generous in his post race comments despite his obvious, intense disappointment. Not just a stupendously fast rider but a gentleman in defeat. Happy Birthday, Pecco! 🎉
