Not only was this four stroke British twin cylinder a fine performing bike, it was one of the most beautiful motorcycles ever made. Period. If you get a chance to ride one in a pure desert configuration, go for it! You will have an eye-opening experience. The exhaust note, the pure power from an idle to peak revs and the handling rivals that of a bike that weighs 50 pounds less.
