Its a JAWA Wet Dream Racer, running on wild foam grown in yugoslavia ;)

seriously, the bike was made for the film by an engineering company even building their own engine!! I'm trying to find more info as I def saw some thing a few years on it!

found out a bit more of the bike

The "Silver Dream Racer" called the Barton phoenix, was the 750 square four built by Barton Motors and housed in a Spondon frame. Dyson of Dyson Originals made the bodywork. They made a 500 version as well.

It had disc valve induction, and in fact made a lot of power and was very fast, but getting them to last a race without a siezure was a big challenge. Barry Hart, the inventor/builder, had very little sponsorship, and most of the development came out of his own pocket. He packed it in shortly after the film was made.

The same motor was used with some success by Nigel Rollason, who in fact won the TT with an outfit powered by the 750.

Buell also had one and had very little good to say about it

Its Brands, but i think theres a couple more tracks in there too, i thought that some of the shots in that clip were of Donny and Cadwell, maybe silverstone too. I'll give it another couple of watches.
