AMA Sports, the amateur racing arm of the AMA, is proud to welcome Gavin Trippe and his 450cc super singles to the AMA Sports Road Race Grand Championships, set for September 19-21 at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio. The 450cc super singles showcase an exciting new breed of road-racers that are powered by 450cc four-stroke engines sourced from top-line motocross bikes and streamlined with custom fairings.
Trippe, a driving force behind the new race bikes, will be on hand as part of the event. A member of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame, Trippe is regarded as the founder of the Superbikers event in the 1970s, which pitted racers from numerous motorcycle racing disciplines against each other on tracks that included elements of motocross, road racing and dirt track.
“We are excited to have Gavin Trippe and his amazing super singles race bikes at the AMA Sports Road Race Grand Championships,” said Anthony Grilli, National Technical Manager for AMA Sports. “With the core of modern motocross machinery and wrapped in MotoGP-inspired composites, these bikes are a thrill to watch as they battle for track supremacy.”
ＡＭＡのプレスリリースより
そう、レースは正に今週行われているはず。
ＲＳＤ（ttp://www.rolandsands.com/450.html）では、このような内容でコンプリートマシンを供給しているようだ。
輸入すると、あれやこれやで約２００万。
ベース車両を日本で買うと￥７７７．０００也。
ヤマハさん、エンジンとフレームだけを４０万くらいで売ってくれないだろうか？
需要が先か？供給が先か？
おまけに、我がチームの１９９３年のＢ.Ｏ.Ｔ.Ｔ.のスナップ。
