The Astro is the culmination of a lot of effort and experimentation on the part of a few good lightweight racers and a tremendous amount of feedback to Bultaco International from its dealer network. Every burg has its own horse or stock car track on which motorcycles are raced and they draw the townfolk, bikes and riders by the truckload. Okay, but why? In Southern California it isnвЂ™t seen, but in the East and South this type of racing is a several-nights-a-week proposition. Most people aren't aware that Bultaco is one of two companies to offer an out-of-the-box short tracker/half-miler for sale. If the name Astro doesn't ring a bell, don't feel badly. There are a whole kaleidoscope of additional thoughts that spin through the head of a racer as the corners approach in the blink of an eye, but these impressions should give you some idea of the thoughts flashing through our minds as we track tested Bultaco's new 360 Astro. Once again all concentration is focused on the upcoming lefthand corner.

As soon as the corner opens up, the throttle is twisted to the stop, rider weight is transferred to the rear wheel and your foot is lifted to the peg a little body English and you disappear down behind the number plate as you and machine, now one,jet full speed down the straight. Power is applied to maintain the arc of the corner.

Your steel-shod left boot contacts the turf and acts as a ski, an outrigger, groping for balance. While all of this is going on, you unconsciously slide all of your weight forward and to the inside, wedging your right knee full force against the tank. RACING DOWN THE front straightaway with a full head of steam, your mind and full attention focus at one point, the predetermined spot just before the corner-and sometimes into it-where the throttle must be rolled back, the compression release pulled and perhaps the brake tapped for an instant.
