1950cc?

So, I'm guessing about 120 ft/lb torque also?

Should be a roll-on beast.

Lord Hesketh is still building bikes? Did not know that.

Looks a bit different from the original Hesketh bike that was designed after the Hesketh F1 team was sold years ago.

I saw Lord Hesketh in the paddock at Watkins Glen in the 70's with his driver Jame Hunt. I thought Hesketh looked to be Benny Hill's brother.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

It looks like a fat German kid; all pudgy and bloated.


Can't decide what bike you want? Here's the all-new Heathkit SuperTurd.

It's a café racer! It's a supersport! It's a cruiser! It's a standard! Yes, it's all four in one!!

Go hagofuku yourself.

Beautiful lines. Looks like it would be a torque monster.

RE: 1950cc Hand Built British V-Twin
I wrote a letter to Hesketh back when he was building the L-twin bikes. He responded very enthusiastically. Those bikes had some teething problems but looked the part. I saw one at an antique bike show at the Rhinebeck Aerodrome in NY last summer. For what it is worth, I hope he succeeds this time. If Norton can do it, so can he.
