have you got any pics of an S1 wheelieing over that bump that used to be on the straight at mossport just before you'd shut down for 8 I think that bump, located where it was caused many many riders to have to carefully extract their shorts from their arses after the race. Lots of panic'd attempts to control tank slappers starting right at that point.
