Nico Bakker was one of several noted frame makers who started in the 70's for mostly Japanese engines.

The resulting company website is here

I can't tell you anything particular about that bike-- it was filmed at an Australian "old time" Superbike event in Oz.

I was just curios because the tank and plastics didn't look like the fairings from back then. The obvious steel tube frame. Cool bike Cool

That's Hans Schwarzott's bike from Austria. In the background is Günter Gutmann's "F" and I have met both at the track in Europe. Both bikes are built to a very high standard and that is so detailed that you have to see it in person to realise just how high.
Both guy's are very personable and a pleasure to meet.
You can probably tell from this that I have a lot of respect for both of them and their bikes.

LUV the exhaust.

Is that an item that is available to mere mortals or a special build item??

It looks like a Jai Gui titanium exhaust. They used to be available to us mortals because I have 2 of them.
