Denis Fitzgerald sent me the following picture showing a XV920 race bike.
He took the photo at Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey CA in 1983 during
the Champion Spark Plug 200. The driver is Dave Aldana just before the
BOT race during that event. The bike was a semi-factory supported effort,
but was never successful against the Ducati's of the day.


Claus-Peter Menzel sent me following pictures of a French racing-TR1.
He saw the bikes at a mountain-race event in Barr, which is in the
French Alsace (Elsass):
