One of the two TX750 machines that had arrived in October 1972 already (pre-production bikes) was already used for the now defunct Zandvoort circuit 6 Hour race in Holland in the Summer of 1973. Rider was “Texas” Henk Klaassen, a very competitive rider of that period. “Texas” Henkie was always dressed as an American (you have guessed that already) and I think he came home 6^th in the event.
