Japan Tech Day at Vincent Raker's Place

Yuichi, Takashi, Shino, Yuko and I went up to Kanazawa, some 500 miles from Tokyo, to visit Vincent and Masami Raker and to hold a Tech Day there. The main work was to change the drive shaft on Yuichi's 1987 R65.

Once again, great pix - makes me want to come and visit and hang out with your local airheads.

Great photos, Hugo. What wonderful countryside to ride in! It's also nice to see the faces of the names I've heard so often mentioned on the AirList. A terrific looking crew!
