Some stunning machines at The Quail...
I just got back from the Quail, which is by far my favorite event of the year
for two wheeling. Sadly I only had time to go to the show this year, but have put up loads of pix of the stunning machinery on display there here - http://www.hp2.info/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=88 Be patient while the images load! |

Stunning machinery indeed ....especially the Vincent related stuff.
Pure industrial art. Curiously Egli Vincents are absent (THESE are the ultimate things - but prices are a bit steep).

PS: Japs (Mugen) they do a shameless copy of the ultimate - but that's sacrilege.

Yes this is the thing.
Kitsch as (almost) all Jap bikes are.
