Haha, indeed. Rollie must have been mental, it would have been bloody painful being sandblasted with what the tyres were chucking up, let alone what could've happened if he'd lost it and fallen off ....
Also I never believed the Suzuki speedo legend "60mph = 2240rpm", or at least that's not crankshaft rpm. My old GT380's 6th gear was about 13mph/1000rpm, so it would've been doing 4,600rpm at 60. I can't imagine the B100P's top gear being twice as long, somehow
