Moto-stunts international

Post by Rhinoman » Fri Oct 18, 2013 8:01 pm

I just spotted this on eBay:

Nothing to do with me but it brings back a few memories. I saw the stunt team in action at Detling and at the Bath showground years ago when I was a member of RhinoRiders. At the Detling show a guy on a bike was doing a record attempt and he jumped a row of cars that contained a bunch of the RR cars - my Vit was in the middle.
The stunt team had a number of stockish SJs and a few that were mode for specific stunts like the highly shortened 'stoppie' car and the rear engine wheelie car. The guy that ran the team did a lot of two-wheeled driving and drove in an number of films. Anyone else remember those guys?

Found some pics, the quality isn't good though. These are from around 2002, the 'LJ' is an SJ with an LJ front end:
