Simon,
If you want me to go and check it out for you, I'm happy to. As long as you cover my expenses.
I'm free the first week in June. ;-)

No problem Nick, June would be a good time to go, I can cover an all expenses paid trip for you. If you can get your trunks from Tesco's (I can't afford Speedos) but I'm not sure if they sell goose fat, are you ok to take a tent and sleeping back across with you. I will require receipts. Simon

I think this bike belonged to Artie Oates from the IOM. He always had problems cooling it hence the Wagon Radiator. I always thought the shape of the air intake was wrong. Apart from that it was okay.

Hi Eddy

The bike belonged to me, Artie Oates did indeed ride for us though, im not sure were you are getting any ideas of cooling problems as there was none. As you know Imps have always had a cooling issues, the big radiator is simply to avoid any of those issues. Any probems we had was down to Carbs and ignition, this is a rolling chassis only, no engines! The bike always handled fine, Artie will vouch for that :)

The chassis has only done a handfull of races due to loosing interest.....and Artie's to old :P
