I've sat on the Britten Dale.....I really wanted to ride......If anyone on here hasnt seen one of those racing around a track, they have missed one of lifes pleasures.......the sound they make makes a Ducati pale into insignificance....and a Duke has one of the best sounds you could want to hear. 8)

The Cotton is one of the lightest frames of the era. I donated a Cotton frame to Yamaico a couple of weeks ago so we might eventually see it up here as one of his projects. The one above is a sweet bike.

When I first saw this thread, this is the bike that I thought of as the sexiest bike ever built ... and I'm not a Kiwi  ;D

Not so much the colour scheme but the engineering .. the design .... the lines ... and the sound ..... holy crap, what a machine  8)
