Cadwell Park was very similar (OK Al, you might say it still is!).

That was at Rhydymoan ( spelt wrong)
Might be spelt wrong but if you put it in google this thread is the only thing that shows up

Looks a little like an outfit that’s been modified around a disability, although it is very hard to tell from the photo ?

I don't think Vince (Lurch) does. He sent me a link to it when we were in the gamesroom asking about it.
Big old suzuki on CV carbs with a standard sump, mono front end but can't see much more than that.
Not Louis' wheels - front looks to be 4 stud and the frame out to the front wheels looks like square tube so not the usual stuff. Passenger handhold looks like it's made for those 'short in the arm'. Obvious stuff - seat not built into fairing - knee trays and arm rests on chassis so not the usual christmas tree. Might be an illusion but seems long. Don't know what the frame is between the driver and the bars.
Is that back on topic?

A guess, it reminds me of the outfit that was for sale on ebay a few weeks ago. Bike was I think at Brighton speed Trials running without a fairing????

That was Roger Hollingshead's ASCO at Brighton wasn't it? That has forks on the front. This has hub steer but with a square tube front end.
