One of our club members has one of these lovely old bikes and is selling it due to his age and infirmities. I have not heard the price yet, but it won't be cheap.
Has anyone ridden one of these? I had a 63 500 cs, very similar bike except the Typhoon is bored and stroked to 600 ccs. I owned the 500 cs for about six months when I was 15 years old, now 43 years ago. I have long forgotten what the bike was like, other than it was very revvy for a 500 single. The 57 on 500 cs was oversquare at 86 mm borex 85.5
I believe the Typhoons were 89 mm bore x 92 mm, so should also be quite revvy
Here is one that sold at auction recently
