I went t' the London Motorcycle Show in ? 1971 Where Gardner had a stand... They had their "Fuel Injection System". Which was basicly an open petrol tube in a bell-mouth. An their "New Disc Brake".. Which was a rim brake fixed on wiv about 20 self tapping screws....  Never saw either on a bike on the road tho....... |
