Shall we try some tough questions?

1) What was the first product ever to feature a Bar Code

2) in 1928 Phil Vincent purchased the remnants of which liquidated motorcycle company to start Vincent? and how much did he pay for it?

3) Which long term KSRC member is/was a member of the Ballarat Rovers Motorcross Club?

Ok you lot, so you reckon you're good?

1. What is this piece of yesteryear? (year and model please):
bike #1.jpg
bike #1.jpg (116.69 KiB) Viewed 479 times
2. Secondly, what is this:
bike #2.jpg
bike #2.jpg (33.44 KiB) Viewed 480 times
A clue for #2 as it's a toughie. It lives in Victoria and has a hand-built 685cc V4 that looks like this:
685cc V4.jpg
685cc V4.jpg (23.46 KiB) Viewed 480 times
A clue for both is that the names of both have something in common with things you can eat.

3. Name five differences between the 2002 and 2007 Hornets, apart from colour.

Oh ok, I didn't realise there was that much structure in it, it looked like a free-for-all to me :oops:

I'll give them to the end of the day and see if anyone has the nous.

I can always drop any number of hints...
