Brilliant stuff...watched this and others (Graziano Rossi racing Kenny Roberts) on ESPN classics last year. My favourite Sheene quote was upon being told Kenny Roberts was developing a racing team (for moto GP) Sheen said 'he couldn't develop a cold!' Cracking stuff.
 
Arrrrrrr the good ol day's , and the old quote that was used when you got pulled by the pigs " who do you think you are , barry sheene " ......."yes i do "
:laugh:laugh . I'm sure he had a lot to do with many of us wanting to experience what a bike can give , even though for me it was a HONDA MB 50 :doug... 2 stroke heaven :pirate
 
My favourite Barry Sheene quote was when he was terminally ill in his hospital bed. A nurse asked him if he was allergic to anything. His reply was "Yeh, ******* cancer!" Got to hand it to the bloke for his dry sense of humour right up to the end:thumbup
