First time this year I've seen exhaust bandages that weren't on some crappy custom just for show. Great video.
Full respect to a guy of his years going for a LSR attempt on what is basically 2 wheels, and Vincent power to boot!

A genius bordering on insanity, Wonderful.
Very cool to see an older fellow carrying the fire!
Great interview. Lovely to hear him talk about it in his own words.
That pair of Gardner flat slides must make for patient fettling. Great to see real engineers at work.

Think Russel wright and Bob Burns set a world sidecar record in New Zealand of 154 mph, later same day raised to 162 mph. On a streamlined machine. July 2nd 1955!. Also vincent powered. Wright also set new solo world record of 185 mph!
“sounds dangerous”. “Sign me up”!!

How on earth do you manage to get a helmet on your head inside that? I’m very impressed with all of it ..
Once the kids are grown...live life wide open I say....Punch it, Baby!!! what do you have to lose??? Run it wide open...no here gets out alive...

Long may men do this!
Why did you build it??? Just to piss the neighbours off.
Such a sad loss to motor cycle sport .RIP John.
What is it with English men and there sheds Will there like come this way again, respect
You know when it's Sunday morning an local boys get their motorbikes out without silencers on or race around without exhausts, these boys never grew up ha ha
Could buy stock bikes that would do that 154 mph. ?

You set a record? B.S.!! Dave Matson set several records back in the early 1980's over 200 mph on a single Vincent engine bike, not a streamliner just a fairing. Best one-way was 217 in 1986. Check the records.
