CHECK OUT THESE HELLRAISERS! One of six, these are "built" bikes, not quite what they appear, too cool. The rest Here: https://www.bikeexif.com/six-of-our-favorite-honda-scramblers
the TT is a bucket list item for me, but alas, until the TSA is disbanded, (or i can afford a charter, lolz) that's on the back burner.....and it's a damn cold burner.
That is some serious engineering! Always coveted a Vincent Black Shadow but never came close to having enough money for one.
I might be wrong but this is probably the Joe Simpson Black Lightning which ran 180 mph on the salt in 1950. My dear friend, the late Marty ****erson, had a couple runs on the bike as well but said they were unable to release the full potential of the bike.
Yeah, fun for around town or down to the waterfront for fish and chips, but definitely not long distance.
