it's true..........
note the Ariel Arrow air-cooled heads and barrels on the RG500 motor, and lack of a radiator

Bet that front disc gets warm with two calipers on it. I would think the cooling on the rear cylinders is marginal with the fins running away from the airflow too. Nice arsecheek warmers mind.
Does look nice though, I always did like the Arrows and had several in the late 60s. Lots of work gone into it.

Fantastic job there, love it! But what's with the three rear shockers?

Can't have too much, or maybe the wife is a porker?

Looks like it was designed by a committee.
