On a trip to Melbourne in January I got a little sidetracked and ended up going to check out a bike. Ended up buying it but had no way of getting it up here.

Long story short a very kind man offered to bring it up with him to BSFOS and I went out this morning to pick it up.

It's an early 80s CB125. Going to race it in superlites at the PCRA rounds this year. It will make it's debut on April 6. Fun!

LOL ... bike looks like fun ... what sort of tyres can you get for it, any radials?

The Purple Helmets are crazy.

I saw it years ago as it did the rounds of facebook (or actually I think it was pre-facebook and was a joke email attachment - remember those?? I even remember, pre-internet, when everyone send jokes to each other at work via FAX). Then it only took me a couple of minutes to find it again in google images.

That damn photo seared into my brain years ago, and once seen it cannot be unseen. <cold shiver>

I'm pretty sure it is running radials. I think the GCRs dictate road tyres.

Pirelli Diablo Rosso II's (radial) only been available for 2 years in smaller size ... prior to that only their Sports Demon (xply). Thought this was true of all the manufacturers?

I've got no idea to be honest. It has Pirellis on it I think I'll check what they are next time I'm in the workshop.
