Wonder when that was done as it looks a tad similar to the current BM setup.

And why does he start off in second gear??

He 'invented' the basic design of the current BMW front suspension (versions of both the Telelever & Duolever) and was never properly recognised for it and was not paid royalties by Bayerische Motoren Werke for 'borrowing' it. This likely happens more than we know.

Argyle sox and loafers are optional on that model.

Here's the man's page with a bit more history, etc.

Ha ha ha !!
I noticed the 'brothel creepers' too

Trying to date it.
The red bike's an 83/84 registration
and the cars you see are not so common nowadays
so I'd guess later 80's

Did you note how he selects 2nd to pull away ??
Well? didya?

Edit:
Oops ! Sorry Phil I see you got that one.
