Of course Egli would use a Vincent motor! I have been tracking down an Egli Bulet for some time now. I always thought the name was a little funny. Should be Egli Hand Grenade. Nothing Egli does wrong, just that I find it amazing that anyone would want to hot rod a Bullet. But he does it with grace and aplomb...
And they seem to actually be fairly durable. Whoda thunk it

I have a Joseph Lucas shirt with his pic on the front. On the back it sez "A Gentleman dosen't go out after dark"

Hey Mr, Corse? Ahhhhhh, what's a RUB? Don't know about Jim, but if you called me a RUB, I'm not so sure I'd want to carry on the conversation with ya?
There are quite a few in this area that don't know anything about bikes, at all but ride the latest thing- usually Harleys as Jim mentions. I was riding in the N. GA mountains and one of them pointed at my rear brake reservoir and asked me what was it? :roll:

Hows about a race Corse. You me and the Deland drag strip on March 8th. Hey, it's me Ernest as if you did not know. I love seeing pics of my old baby motors. Hopeful it grow up to be a strong mature beast. Thats the bike you should bring to Deland. The Bimota and the Yamacati (we will rule the world Ha ha ha hah !!!! ) I will bring the clutch cover gasket for you so there is no way out. Maybe Mertle beach??? Ernest at 1-480-255-9033

Ernest's "little" Yamaha motor causes major embarrassment at Deland and it runs on gas!
