Saving face is more than just
a good way to avoid embar-
rassment. The Casler Face
Saver will also protect your
smiling mug from "raspberries
on your nose" and "chinkelber
-
ries on your chin." Just $7.50
while you wait one more year
for the full-faced Bell Moto Star.

Finally, are you just a poor
boy? Nobody loves you? No
factory ride and no major wins?
No problem! You might not be
as fast as Roger DeCoster or
Kenny Roberts or any other
big-time racer who gets their
picture in Cycle News, but
you can be smarter—and just
as famous! For your $11.50
subscription fee, Cycle News
will publish your photo in the
December 1975 issue. You pro
-
vide the pic (preferably in black
and white), and they provide the
fame. Magnifico-o-o-oh!

Forget quickshifters and fancy
hydraulic clutches. Husqvarna
will scare the competition
shiftless with the new for 1976,
Husqvarna Automatic. Even
Cycle News publisher Sharon
Clayton bought one!

What kid wouldn't want to find
a real, Ron Wood Norton flat
tracker, ridden by Rob Morrison
and Alex Jorgensen, in their
Christmas stocking? A good deal
at $3500 ($21,000 in 2025). Like
all sophisticated Brits, Nortons
are sensitive to tosspots and
plonkers, so "please do not call
unless you are sincere."

Thankfully, sexploitation hadn't
yet been invented in 1975, so sensi-
tive companies like Target (no, not
that Target) were making these cool,
egalitarian-minded tee shirts for just
$3.50. Determined to remain agile
enough to fend off fellers aiming for
her bullseyes, Sue has modified her
own shirt for less wind resistance and
better cooling in the midrange.
