Hope the history of the bike is true as well or will we see multiple bikes with dubious history claims?

The handgrip on the left fork tube is a nice touch… get down low on the straights. That might work on my roadbike!
Surely a top racebike would have no patina, it would be “as new” every outing, so the shine works for me.

Bikes raced on the beach until 1960, after that of course they moved to the Speedway as we know it now.

i think the intake looks goofy-its just a huge pipe with a huge grill thing? the sprocket and drum on the same side is pretty cool though.

Sirkegian’s racebikes were always well turned out. His dragsters were nicknamed “Pretty Boys” remember.
