what a brilliant bike,i love those low boy frames
 
Thanks for posting those pics Yves. It looks like the latter version of the engine Dunstall raced.
I keep hoping that someone, somewhere still has a fully functioning original 500 Domiracer engine with the bucket cam followers and alloy barrels with the eccentric rocker adjustment setup, but it’s very unlikely :(
 
I've several scanned magazine articles from the day and from later Classic Racer, works out to a few Mb though.

Hi Yves,
Did you ever manage to get in contact with Michael Braid ?
Would love to know more about this particular bike.
Thanks,
Tamzin.
 
I watched this bike (or its 650 stable mate ) race at Brands in the day and may get to study it again as MB brings it to some Norton meets. I'll try to get some detailed photos, and ask a few intelligent questions ( while the brain is still working!)
