The boys from Team Obsolete bought this bike, they are from Brooklyn New York. I met them at Thompson race track where they ran it for a few laps/sessions a few years ago

Rocket Ron on a Mal Carter machine.
I bought a Saab 99 from Mal's Pharaoh Dealership in Halifax around 1980.
When I went to collect it, sat in the office was Kenny Carter. Kenny killed his wife and himself with a shotgun in 1986, and they are buried side by side in a nearby churchyard.

Perhaps 'side by side' isn't the best phrase to use if he killed them both with a shotgun?
