Spotted this at Brooklands on 10-10-10 and thought some of you might like to take a look.
It’s styled around, at a guess, a 1920’s boardtrack / speedway racing machine, but is a new build.
The owner has just got it back from the states where he’s had it built to his own design. Engine is Heritage Sportster with serious mods, narrowed 1940's forks, bespoke frame, etc etc etc.
Its soon to be registered for the road too.
Personally I think the bike’s got a fantastic balance and feel/presence, my hat goes off to the guy.
It was having a ‘professional’ photo shoot done of it and rider, so I guess it will be in the magazines soon. Maybe you saw it here first……
I've got these pics in the events section for Brooklands, but figured this was worth including here too
