Very cool that, I can't believe its a 350! Mind you I wouldn't fancy an emergency stop from 65 mph wth those breaks.

For those that may not realise if you click on the Bonhams photo you can check out the machine in almost micro detail. A simply lovely V twin.

As for braking just imagine the road surface's that it used hurtle along on - plenty of gravel rash and cobble chips then I'd imagine and how many burst tyres with those caliper brakes?

Even more difficult to comprehend is how someone would want to do 65mph on it!
