Since Jack passed away on May 20th, why do you list him on May 19th?

Regards K.H.

Wrong! That's a Yamaha twin, Jack rode in 1975 in the 500 cc class, after his contract with Suzuki expired. As long as 500 cc Yamaha Fours weren't available for Privateers yet, a few TZ 350 engines were equipped with a bigger bore in order to gain more than 350 cc and bring them into the 500 cc class. Jack rode his (approx. 375 cc) Yamaha two times to GP-rostrum results in 1975, two third places, in Spa and in Imatra!
