A guy in the South Carolina VJMC says that he has a complete Seeley GT750 buried in one of his garages. I want to see/buy it, but he doesn't seem to sell much; his yard is full of old Minis and other Brit cars.

If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.

Too many bikes, too much time, ENOUGH SPACE, FINALLY! Never enough money.........

I bet its for ground clearance during cornering at race speeds . Todays design fat pipes take up a lot of space placed side by side .
