"There are only three sports: mountain climbing, bullfighting and motor racing. All the rest are merely games." - ERNEST HEMINGWAY
The machines offered in this catalogue continue to reflect Webb's passion for things well made. From the humble to the extraordinary, all are designed for the motorcycle pilot. The collection is significant because it offers a select pedigree of race machines that have been conceived by the very best minds in their fields. The primordial wish for velocity has, through the ages, engendered some great, and not so great, episodes of inventiveness in the pursuit of deep angled handling at devilish speed.
