Ya, I know. It's worth more in original trim, but I like it!! ;D It stirs something in me. :D

Agreed. Drewski, I like that bike more than you might realize! ;)

Is that YOURS Big Rich?? :eek: ;D


I swiped that pic off eBay a while back. Were you the seller? Buyer? ;)

There were only 3 made IIRC so it has to be Rob's, or George Barber's or? Does Virgil Ellings own the other? I remember an article "somewhere" where Rob I was talking about lending parts to someone to replicate them to complete a bike but I remember none of the details.
 
I thought Sammy Miller had one. I vaguely remember a bit of a blow up over one. Details are too vague but one of the porcs was supposed to be "funny". Wrong bits, no internals etc. Sure wish CRS hadn't set in.

Thank you for that... seriously ;)
I have an '87 750 in the wings, and I've toying with the idea of a suspension upgrade. Along with a 450cc bump in displacement :D

I believe that Pseudo one was the supposed forth. I believe the one in the pic was at Carlisle... but I thought there was two on display at Barber Museum.

And maybe not a Brough Superior but how about a 1924 Montgomery-Anzani in 1600 x 879 http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lVCC9aDALT4/SMbVB0q6OsI/AAAAAAAADf0/mZCb_4lTgq4/s1600/montgomery.bonhams.jpg
