Aint seen the article, but I've sure seen the bike (and Henning) a few times.

I thought it was actually around 460,000 MILES! Hell, my 'ol banger's done 250,000 K's.
Henning is a regular sight at the Alpine Rallies in Aus.

I bumped into him a few weeks back in Tumba-bloody-rumba. He was on his way to a rally. He had an exploding pen. Later this year he's off to Laos to build a school or a hospital.

The tank was modified by one of Henning's mates iirc.

I bumped into him a few weeks ago too, at the Chiltern southbound rest area.

So I made a little fillum.
