A.L. Bailey's V Twin 1000cc RUDGE before restoration by Dave McMahon (thanks to Colin Chapple): ....................................................and after...
Mark Sanderson's v-twin Panther: "The first start up of V twin engine. No nasty rattles or leaks, oil pumping to both heads and big ends through Harley crank. Bit of fine tuning to do on charging system and tick over. So far, so good." Everything was designed, made, machined, milled and welded by him!
Mark Sanderson's 1200cc v-twin Panther: "Sneak preview of the V Twin. Just needs wiring up and road testing." This is the second v-twin Panther to be built. (The first one was Geoff Stray's 1300cc "Stray Cat".)
Replica of the expeimental supercharged 250cc Rudge v-twin in the National Motorcycle museum...
