320 – Bob Anderson – 1964 Hagon JAP replica. Bob had a frame custom built a few years ago to “replicate” the frames Alf Hagon made back in the day to take his JAP V-twin.

I haven't seen the Triumph in the flesh. I've forgotten what Andy's previous bike was, but that looks amazing. Love the Vincent. Top reportage as always Tone. Thank you

Thank you Previous bike was a 500cc normally aspirated Triumph and the inspiration for the 750 supercharged machine.. Photo is from Eelmoor (Nr Aldershot) a few years ago, in fact, this might have been the event you (Sir Manky) came along to.
