Rudge Whitworth
Tonythetarga (good user name) asked me to post a pic of my 1929 Rudge Whitworth. Its buried in the garage and this is the only one I have on my harddrive. I'll be pulling it out and cleaning it to trailer it up to the all British bike meeting in March, which is why I can't go to the Ulitimate Pelican meeting in Vegas the same weekend.
Its a 500 cc single cylinder, four valve head bike. Its one of six Rudges that competed in the 1929 world cup TT at the Isle on Man. Rudge finished 1,2 &3 in the event, but my bike finished 9th I think. My Dad who was Canadian bought it from the Canadian who raced it in the race, and he rode it for many years. Its all original including the paint and gold leaf on the tank. I know this is OT, but I don't know if tonythetarga goes to OT or not. Rats, the pic won't load, here's the link to where I posted it once before.
