Most people are familiar with Burt Munro & John Britten. A couple of lads from NZ who built their own bikes & took on the world.
Anyone ever heard of a chap named Kim Newcombe?
1973 500cc GP World Championship runner up.............................
An honor that was awarded posthumously.
This tale is broken up into 4 clips. The highs & the lows of competing in a world championship on a bike you built yourself around an outboard boat motor.
A truly amazing story & a bit of a tear jerker at times. Still gives me goose bumps every time I watch it.
