Royal Enfield lorry, Earls Court show 1962














The rest of the clip didn't show anything RE, but is still interesting.

It could be said that Honda Monkey Bike in the video clip was the beginning of the end for the UK motorcycle industry.

Classic Bob Danvers-Walker voice over in that clip, "the W*nkel (engine) may be adapted for motorcycle use before long." It wasn't until the 70's that anyone got anything to the market!

Dig the British experimental models in the A65 and Starfire chassis...



Sorry about the asterisks, apparently according to this forum's filters this is the engine that dare not speak its name. To read the article, copy and paste the link into your browser and replace the asterisk with the appropri*te vowel.

I had a real head scratcher on one post.



When I tried to post, it said about using foul words (or something to that point) and would not let me post.



I spent over an hour re-reading and found nothing... until,



I had posted three photos, and you know how tiny pic and others always has a strem of what looks like random numbers and letters, ie, http://tinypic.com/m/ilk7j8/3 ?

You guessed it! Tiny pic had managed to get an 'n', 'c', 'u' and a 't' in an obvious order in that code!



I'm all for keeping rudeness out of the forum, but I was really annoyed when I had worked out what was wrong! Had to reload the photo to tinypic to get a different code as well!
