Been bugging me too as I had one but can't remember exactly what it was ! I bought it second hand but it came from Phill at church street cycles originally
Diatron panther rings a bell but I can't find no pictures even though I had it for years.
I am waiting for some pictures of us racing at Teesside airport coming from an old mate, hopefully it will show my old bike
Cheers mick

For me living in Consett, Co Durham, I had to travel by bus and Metro to bike shops that were any good in the north east. We used to go by bus with our bikes in bin bags to get them on there. We would go to Newcastle for Kawasaki Newcastle and another shop further up the road, then jump on the metro to South shields for a visit to Jos Conways, I remember these Shops been packed out on the weekends and kids everywhere riding outside, great memories........Then some weekends we would go down to Sunderland and stay at my grans, we used to ride 26 mile to get there, stay overnight and ride back the next day, we had Kawasaki Sunderland, Hendersons, Halfords, Peter Darke Cycles and Kelly's.
