That's the one. An early shot of Eddie Laycock on his way to 5th place in the 350cc race at the North-West 200 back in 1983.
It says Cotter Motorcycles on the fairing, they were involved with road racing in the south for many years, not sure if they are still around.
I hav'nt heard of them for a long while Barry,i thought Eddie ran a bike shop in Dublin called Red Zone Motorcycles
