I wish TV had a knob so you could turn up the intelligence. The one marked Brightness doesn't work.

I remember a certain Mr. Kenny Fleming from Dunblane rode one just like that in the 1970 ISDT at El Escorial. MZ ISDT 250cc Replica I would say?

Also a guy called Alan Forbes had one of those.

Yes the ISDT of 1970 at El Escorial was featured in the film "On Any Sunday" as Malcolm Smith (of MSRacing) rode a Husqvarna at that event and therefore attracted the attention of Bruce Brown when he was making the film.
