    I watched that race and it WAS extra special, it was the only time I saw a Ducati win a race in the 70's !  There were a couple of 750 sports which did ok, about 4th and 10th I think, against a horde of Z1's. We did have a big advantage though, Ducati's were the only marque which didn't have to make a fuel stop. Great days.

Maybe I should just do that with my SC instead of selling it.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Nah.  I'd still be dealing with the same issue of wanting more "go" in the mountains.

What gets me is the bolt used to retain the valve guide...
I was going to say that when I was at VeeTwo we used that method to retain valves on race engines, but reading the story I see it WAS a VeeTwo engine with the 60deg intake.

Why the spoked wheels? Vintage class or is there some flat track advantage?

They are tubeless, and stronger than solid wheels.   The tracks get incredibly rough in some cases.  One of Bill Werner's Kawi's broke a magnesium wheel in Lima, OH (very rough cushion track) rider walked away.....could have been ugly.

Nice find TF waytogo
