From left: Phil Ramey (a Hollywood Paparazzi); Evil ex; Daughter, (Melissa, now retired Navy CPO); Mike Parti (AMA Hall of Fame & Vincent Guru) and John(Red Dog)Miller (works and lives at J. Leno's Big Dog Garage). Picture from late 70's. Try as hard as we could, the Brampton's wouldn't go over 125ish without going into violent tank slappers. More than a few Speedweeks (years!) were wasted trying to rectify this.

Hmm, the third LSR Vincent I've seen with the forks drilled to change the axle location.
Well spotted, I missed that, Cheers Bill.
John Renwick also does that on some of the race bikes that he prepares. He also repositions the hole where the front lower spindle goes through the girdraulic blade to give a similar effect to John Emmanuel's modification which extends the centre of the eccentrics lower etc.
