Title: Classic Superbikes 2
Post by: Ian on August 09, 2022, 12:00:33 PM
Hi all, as some of you who went to Stafford last year may or may not recall, I was approached by Frank Melling asking if he could photograph the Black and Gold ("JPS") SRX, which happened round about November time last year.
He has just sent me a copy of his new book titled as above. There is a chapter on the SRX along with several photos including the one I now use on here. At the end of said chapter there are a few acknowledgements including one for the Thumperclub. I have only just received my copy but it looks a quality book with such diverse bikes from Ariel3 right up to Honda CBX with loads in between.
Ian.

Woo hoo. Fame at last Ian. Well deserved too may I say. The only problem (for you that is) is that with all that royalty money rolling in.......the jelly babies are on you at the show this October 😉😉👍

No royalties, in fact I didn't even know if the pics would be included in true Morton's style. I'll order the JBs now 👍👶
