I knew Simon was trying to unload that. didn't look too far, does the auction have the video of it running? I know they offered it to Barber but barber turned them down.

what a unique engineering project. Utterly useless but awesome.  :metal:

i know back when he built it, he used 250 cyls, they were abound in the UK and nobody wanted S1 stuff. Most people still don't, i think a lot of them were used as parts bikes for s2's. I mean, a 27HP triple really isn't that appealing back then, and not really now TBH (theres rare exceptions)
