Royal-Enfield-1960-350cc-Bullet Boost peak power output to 21 bhp @ 6,500 rpm by various tweaks, add a bigger front stopper, drop the handlebar ends, spray on some lustrous polychromatic paint and dip the lot in the chrome vat and this is how the “350 Clipper†emerged! In fairness there was a little more to it than that, but in essence the 1960 “350 Bullet†was a sporting variant of its rather plain class-mate. Again, Royal Enfield was keeping faith with a fast disappearing market sector in continuing this model. Twins were taking over and rorty singles were not going to be the future. New for ‘60 on the Bullet was an entirely AC/DC lighting and ignition system, gone was the magneto ignition of yore, a contact breaker housing taking the place of the old ‘mag’. In that much, at least, Redditch was following a trend. Keywords: Royal Enfield, 1960, 350 Clipper, Clipper, Glass Plate, Tried and Tested, Tried & Tested, Motorcycle

WD600578@042 Gp Test Majest Yamaha Majesty 400 [TINTED PRICE BOX OUT] RRP: £5899 (plus OTR) [TEXT] The Majesty 400 looks quite similar to the Burgman, but (in my opinion) the styling is a bit more up to date so it’ll appeal to a broader spectrum of riders. I quite enjoyed riding this one, although as we got closer to the coast and the roads turned into bumpy ‘B’ lanes, its suspension struggled to cope quite as well as the Burgman, GP800 or Satelis. It just didn’t feel quite as well damped. At the time, myself and Stef were putting the scooters through some rigorous testing though on very dodgy roads! Yamaha have built the Majesty with a die-cast alloy chassis and they’ve tried to keep the centre of gravity as low as possible, which does help with slow speed handling; it’s also pretty stable as you get to the top end. Acceleration is brisk on the Majesty, (slightly faster than the Suzuki at any rate) and when it gets going the 33.5bhp 395cc fuel injected engine seems to have plenty of mid-range grunt, which is always useful for overtaking. The bike was almost new with just 633 miles on the clock, so there’s still a chance it could loosen up a bit more and nudge that top speed into three figures. The Yamaha scores well on practicalities; it has bags of room under the seat (or should that be room for bags under the seat)? It’s also got a lockable glovebox for keeping your mobile and a bit of change for tools at reach and there’s plenty of weather protection from that large front fairing and screen. I found the seating position to be comfortable with enough room to stretch my legs a bit if need be and the riders backrest helped to cushion my back, the pillion seat looked quite plush too. Like any scooter, the Yamaha Majesty won’t appeal to everybody but if you’re looking for something relatively quick which can quite easily take the place of a city car and do a much more convenient and faster job of getting you to work, as well as being more than capable of touring, then the Majesty is wor Keywords: 2010 Yamaha Majesty 400, Joe Dick, Majesty 400, Maxi Madness group test, Mortons Archive, Mortons Media Group, New Scoots on the Block, Nov/Dec 10, Twist & Go, Yamaha

Sheene and racer Gordon Keith, winner of the 1964 Manx Lightweight Grand Prix, pictured by Nick Nicholls at a Brands Hatch practice day on 17 February 1968 - two weeks before Sheene made his race debut at the Kent circuit on Saturday 2 March. Barry, 17, was there that February day to gently run in the engines of two Bultacos his father Frank had tuned for the coming season. Barry returned the following week to complete the job and went so well he ended up racing them. At the time, Frank was the famous Sheene because of his tuning talent and it was the bikes not the young rider, that made the picture newsworthy.

WD127477@10 Salsbury model For those who didn't guess it was a Salsbury Model 85 (standard model - the deluxe model having a faired in front end with a windscreen and a rear pillion seat). The Model 85 had a production run starting in 1946 and ending in 1949 after 700-1000 units were produced. The official public debut of the Model 85 was at a press conference in late 1946 on Fargo Street in Los Angeles (chosen as Fargo Street was the steepest road in Los Angeles, with a 32 degree slope). The idea was to display the Model 85's hill climbing ability - a task it apparently managed with ease. So know you know!

Sheenebookazine17 It all started here. Sheene and racer Gordon Keith, winner of the 1964 Manx Lightweight Grand Prix, pictured by Nick Nicholls at a Brands Hatch practice day on 17 February 1968 - two weeks before Sheene made his race debut at the Kent circuit on Saturday 2 March. Barry, 17, was there that February day to gently run in the engines of two Bultacos his father Frank had tuned for the coming season. Barry returned the following week to complete the job and went so well he ended up racing them. At the time, Frank was the famous Sheene because of his tuning talent and it was the bikes not the young rider, that made the picture newsworthy.

Sheenebookazine24 Sheene loathed the Isle of Man, but raced many times at Scarborough's Oliver's Mount Circuit, a narrow, tree-lined pure road circuit where a memorial now stands at the startline in his honour. Here he is (41) pictured chasing his good friend and hero John 'Mooneyes' Cooper (1) and Steve Machin (19), the man who took advantage of Barry's decision to contest a big money end of season meeting in America to nip ahead and snatch the 1971 250 British title from his grasp. The chasers are Derek Chatterton (35) and Cliff Carr (4). (You Tube) Keywords: Barry Sheene, Mortons Archive, Mortons Media, Mortons Media Group Ltd, motor cycle, motorcycle, Sheene
Sheenebookazine43 Kiwi ace Graeme Crosby chases Sheene at Donington in 1981. Sheene's hopes of a good result at the British GP at Silverstone that year ended when Crosby dumped his bike in his path going into Stowe Corner and they both ended up on their ear. Keywords: Barry Sheene, Mortons Archive, Mortons Media, Mortons Media Group Ltd, motor cycle, motorcycle, Sheene
Sheenebookazine49 Pat Hennen heads Sheene. In 1976 Hennen became the first American to win a 500cc GP. He and Sheene never hit it off as team-mates and Hennen's race career was ended by injuries suffered at the 1978 Isle of Man TT.

Sheenebookazine64 Sheene began the 1975 season by smashing his left leg at Daytona and ended it back on crutches after smashing his right knee. Between those two disasters he delivered the goods on the RG500, winning the first two 500cc GPs of his career.

WD127477@10 Salsbury model For those who didn't guess it was a Salsbury Model 85 (standard model - the deluxe model having a faired in front end with a windscreen and a rear pillion seat). The Model 85 had a production run starting in 1946 and ending in 1949 after 700-1000 units were produced. The official public debut of the Model 85 was at a press conference in late 1946 on Fargo Street in Los Angeles (chosen as Fargo Street was the steepest road in Los Angeles, with a 32 degree slope). The idea was to display the Model 85's hill climbing ability - a task it apparently managed with ease. So know you know!

WD127477@10 Salsbury model For those who didn't guess it was a Salsbury Model 85 (standard model - the deluxe model having a faired in front end with a windscreen and a rear pillion seat). The Model 85 had a production run starting in 1946 and ending in 1949 after 700-1000 units were produced. The official public debut of the Model 85 was at a press conference in late 1946 on Fargo Street in Los Angeles (chosen as Fargo Street was the steepest road in Los Angeles, with a 32 degree slope). The idea was to display the Model 85's hill climbing ability - a task it apparently managed with ease. So know you know!

WD600578@042 Gp Test Majest Yamaha Majesty 400 [TINTED PRICE BOX OUT] RRP: £5899 (plus OTR) [TEXT] The Majesty 400 looks quite similar to the Burgman, but (in my opinion) the styling is a bit more up to date so it’ll appeal to a broader spectrum of riders. I quite enjoyed riding this one, although as we got closer to the coast and the roads turned into bumpy ‘B’ lanes, its suspension struggled to cope quite as well as the Burgman, GP800 or Satelis. It just didn’t feel quite as well damped. At the time, myself and Stef were putting the scooters through some rigorous testing though on very dodgy roads! Yamaha have built the Majesty with a die-cast alloy chassis and they’ve tried to keep the centre of gravity as low as possible, which does help with slow speed handling; it’s also pretty stable as you get to the top end. Acceleration is brisk on the Majesty, (slightly faster than the Suzuki at any rate) and when it gets going the 33.5bhp 395cc fuel injected engine seems to have plenty of mid-range grunt, which is always useful for overtaking. The bike was almost new with just 633 miles on the clock, so there’s still a chance it could loosen up a bit more and nudge that top speed into three figures. The Yamaha scores well on practicalities; it has bags of room under the seat (or should that be room for bags under the seat)? It’s also got a lockable glovebox for keeping your mobile and a bit of change for tools at reach and there’s plenty of weather protection from that large front fairing and screen. I found the seating position to be comfortable with enough room to stretch my legs a bit if need be and the riders backrest helped to cushion my back, the pillion seat looked quite plush too. Like any scooter, the Yamaha Majesty won’t appeal to everybody but if you’re looking for something relatively quick which can quite easily take the place of a city car and do a much more convenient and faster job of getting you to work, as well as being more than capable of touring, then the Majesty is wor Keywords: 2010 Yamaha Majesty 400, Joe Dick, Majesty 400, Maxi Madness group test, Mortons Archive, Mortons Media Group, New Scoots on the Block, Nov/Dec 10, Twist & Go, Yamaha
