Fancy a bike with this engine in it?

Impressive!

This one might not have the power, but it is kick-start only

I once backed a horse that looked exactly like that when it came out into the paddock  .

Which one are we talking about here....the one on top? or the one underneath?

[Steve Lake]

Oh....I love Mighty Mouse
What a nice guy Brian Chapman is....I chatted to hime at snetterton in the 70's when they were running a drag strip along the old Norwich (revitt) straight.

Aparently the bike is running the same mains that it was given in the factory in 1951!... that little bike ran Tom Christensons double norton 'Hogslayer' a very close second and regularly beat bike 2 or 3 times its size/power, which says a lot for both Brian's very polished performance and his immaculate preparation of the bike.

great to see him out again at vintage events

Also seen Brian Chapman at North Weald and Santa Pod with Mighty Mouse and his big brother.Super Mouse(?)
Needless to say it is a Vincent Twin.

Saw it at a Sprint at Pembrey in the 80's. I was trying to take a picture at the start line, but ended up just dropping my camera (on a strap) so I could cover my ears. Unbelievably loud

Did stand behind it in the Staging Lane at Santa Pod whilst we were getting ready !
That soon stopped when he took off.
Extremely loud....so much so we could still feel it in our stomachs until he shut off.A quarter of a mile away !

Awsome Beast !
