In response to my post about the
Harley Davidson Sprint, Stu sent me this picture.

Sammy's Linto Via Stu |
Sammy is
Sammy Miller,
champion motorcycle racer. The Linto is a 500 cc Grand Prix racer from 1969. It used the top end from two single cylinder engines and grafted them onto a custom crankcase.
It was a competitor.
Lots of pictures of this bike out on the net.
I collected a few of them into one page. Only a handful of these bikes were made. At what point do all the bits from all the images outweigh the original machine?
2 comments:
24 were built, the later ones with the short-stroke engines, revving 1000 rpm higher for a few more hp over the standard 61hp.
Bits weigh 3.2 * 10^-35 grams per bit.
I'll leave you to do the math now ;-)
