2006 ACU BRITISH TOP FUEL BIKE CHAMPION

The bike was originally built and raced in Holland by Dutch racer Roald Dogge, before being bought by us in 2002. It has been in continual development since that time. In appreciation of the work put in by Roald, we have retained the original name and basic colour.
