big john Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 (edited) Four Stroke Finale - The Honda Trials Story is a very sought after book now that it is no longer available (out of print for many years) It's the old saying of willing seller and willing buyer. However, I have been in contact with the author Tommy Sandham this week who has indeed been watching this item on e-bay himself. Tommy can supply an e-book version and is now wondering if the time is ripe to reprint the book perhaps with a few updates maybe taking the story on to the Honda RTLF or Montesa Cota 4RT as most of us know it?

physco Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 I purchased the e/book version from Tommy Sandham which i still have, it would be great if i could open it and view it!
