Title: GT World Tour out of hiding
Post by: WINI on May 31, 2015, 06:15 PM

Just got this out of my folks loft after a few years hidden away.  Thought a better picture or two might be worthy, as sadly it will be sold before long. 1985 GT World Tour Performer...

You know I loved that bike the moment I saw it.
It is just iconic.

Was there a later ad, probably '86 with him pouring the frame out of a pit of blu paint, or have I imagined that?  ???
