This machine is the actual 1977  Daytona 100 Mile (250) winning machine, ridden by Steve Baker.  It is a very light, and as Steve says also a very fast machine. The engine is basically TZ250, but inside the engine many things are different “works”. The frame is made by Rob North  (also for Kenny Roberts) and everything which was allowed to be made of magnesium and / or titanium has been done.
