It's the hand-lettered gas tank, all that streamlining has made it the ultimate race bike

>>>>most race bikes have flip-up passenger backrests.

Yeah. . . well maybe. But I learned, smack dab in the middle of a drag race at Heartland Park Topeka in 1990, not to store my jacket smushed between the seat and the flipped down backreast ..... Wossssssssssssssh and that baby was gone.

I could not resist sending him an e-mail mentioning the whole racebike/passenger backrest/turn signals thing and mentioned that 46 was never anyones magical homolugation number,but if he really needed factual information on the bike I could refer him.
