Ossa tracker


This was a project by the OSSA distributor in 1966. They took the Sport 175, stripped it of roadgoing trim and added a bigger carb, a pipe and fibreglass tank for racing flattrack and TTs. Apparently it worked quite well, though it didn't seem to become a popular choice for racers.

I would think that the up pipe would get a little uncomfortable making a series of left turns.

The rake of the forks looks more like a road racer then a flat tracker.

they should have painted the tank metal flake.

Yes, the rake was extreme in the street bikes, they don't seem to have modifed the frame at all.
