Cottom bought this bike from the original owner who used it very successfully on the Dragstrips of Texas (hence, the low gearing). David pretty much covers it's preparation for the test, the tires were, I might add, hard as rocks from 10 years of Texas heat.. The next few issues of CW were filled with angry Vincent Owners from across the country. CW liked British bikes well enough, this was as said above, simply a Hatchet Job!
Glad to see the Article still has an effect 49 years on.
