Wasn't this the Shell wheelie the famous one

Yup - the one where Dennis Ireland's throttle jammed open and he nearly decapitated Don Morley...

I definitely bought it every week. Used to buy Motorcycle Weekly too,before it went tits up. It was the golden era of bike rags,they're all pretty shit now,nothing to write about and no one able to string together an entertaining story.

There was a sticker in that or maybe it was his 2nd in 77 but it's still stuck to an outside wall at my Mum's old house where I leaned out of my sister's window and stuck it out of reach of my Mum. You can't read the print now but I look every time I pass and it's still there :)

I had 3 into 3 Pipers on my GT750. Much better than the 3 into 1 in that video.

Had piper 3-1 on a gt550, bloody loud but no faster, probably bit slower in reality tbh.
