No, don't go back down the engine turning rabbit hole!

 

(Though, at least this one puts the engine in engine turning.)

I remember going down to Bristol , in England , to have a look at the new Yamaha WR 400 2-Trak at Fowlers. it had an advantage in sand - not my favourite medium - but the extra weight of about 8 KG counteracted its advantage elsewhere. The front wheel got up to 10% power.

Handley Special .. built over 25 yrs with a part Merlin part Meteor bitsa engine , custom designed gearbox and hand rolled ally' bodywork .. reckoned to put out a modest 900 hp but an ocean of torque at 1550 lb/ft .. and surprisingly frugal on gas for a Merlin engined car at 4 mpg .. on a run .. 

Don't 'cha just love the engine turned dash' ..

I can remember watching  this on TV, Barry Briggs in heat 5 of the world championship ,come off the bike and lost any index finger ,got his hand caught in the other falling bikes back wheel ,but being Briggo made a come back.

After this all rear wheels  were boxed in on speedway bikes to prevent this happening again ,at the time he was almost a hero of mine rode for Swindon speedway team  at the time ,a great rider.

This bike was made for singles only. She never asks for money, shuts up when times get tight and does all he wants. And she's never asking for any jewelry or other expensive items.

How'd you like to take that for a cruise down a rutted wagon road? Absolutely bone jarringly Flintstonian.

 

Also gonna be a bit of a stretch getting the knee down in the corners.
