OMG! For real? MikeV

PS: I wonder how often the belt must be changed. Did you notice the Dellorto carb?

Belts- we cannot go past the late Kim Newcombe who with a Konig 500cc hydroplane engine finished 2nd in the world 500gp championship. One fast kiwi with a sad ending. Boucher.

Interesting responses.....I guess Lou "the Mod" figured that motor out first.

At least vacuum cleaner belts for that Konig are cheap to replace. On Boucher's comment, if you havent watched take a look at the link.

And then, Boucher is building the Hammer, I dont have the skill to do that, but I am going to build a "Church Replica" thats a little more vintage and in line with my skills.
