Default 1999-2000 Dedication bike?

Ok so after I recked my bike pulled off the front fairing and seen molded in to it was "Dedicated to Dirk Vandenbery and Josef Boyd" ?
In my reserch In 1998 Dirk hit Josef on the track when Josef was tring to take pic's. they both died. Is this on all the 1999 and 2000 F4's? i asked my local shop about it. they have never seen any thing like it.

I think I remember seeing another thread on this at some point in the last 6 months. You might want to search and see what you can find.

There is another thread on this. I think the stamp was put on all the bikes. After I read it I searched it and found a news article about it. If I remember right 2 factory Honda engineers were killed in a testing accident. One was riding and the other was there for support, and something happened and the rider collided with the other engineer who was watching.
