Whilst searching for something else, I came across this page that I scanned many years ago, from the December 1971 issue of Motorcycle and Three-Wheeler Mechanics...

Hi Steve.

Yes, I always wondered about the exhaust, too. I didn't realise it was for dampening down the noise. I thought it might be some sort of snorkel for going through deep fords or something.

Still, glad you liked the article... ...and Go Gerrit! 8)

I agree with Steve, thank you for the article and the photo of the intriguing exhaust. Will we see you out on the trails on it?

That would be a real hoot! :D

Sadly it's not my bike, and I'm not sure if my creaky knees would be up to it anyway. :roll: Hey ho.
