J Russ;
I replied to your post a day or two after I received notification of it, but I just noticed that it apparently didn´t come thru.. For this I apologize..
To answer your questions...
Yes, I still have the F-9 "Enduro", except I built it as a GP RoadRacer back in the early ´70´s.. thus the 165mph capability.
No, I´m not interested in selling it.. I´ve kept it, along with my 250cc Bultaco "Flat-Tracker", all these years for nostalgic reasons, not to mention having "proof" that I actually raced professionally (my only child was born eleven years after I "retired" from racing)
Needless to say, my "retirement", at the ripe old age of twenty-six, was the result of one crushed and one fractured vertabra in my neck.. this, along with the other broken bones, has made "old age" a rather miserable experience.. Plus I quit working on bikes back then, as well.. so I haven´t kept up with all the new "whiz-bang" technology that has come out.. I even sold my ´58 Framed, ´53 Engined Harley "74 Dresser" in 1986.. one of my bigger regrets!
