Seeley Konig 500 1970's Grand prix bike

[@BooklessT]

In 1974 I was hitchhiking from near Watford to Mallory to watch the race of the year. I was picked up by a bloke in an Imp Californian whose son was racing a seeley framed konig. As he had a pit pass, we drove into the paddock and I didn't have to pay any entrance money. I then watched the day's racing from the paddock. Somewhere in my slide collection is a picture of me sat on his bike. I'm just wondering if this is the same one.

Apart from the 250/350 classes there was such a interesting variation of bikes in them days.

one of perhaps the best sounding 2 strokes (In my opinion) used to watch them race on hydroplanes in my local broad!

[@posniknelb6114]

They sound fantastic, absolutely fantastic!!

[@michaelsampson7259]

Definitely a better sounding 2 stroke

[@jakeanderson5402]

Same as the konig outboard engines

[@tpvalley]

so.... I fires 2 cylinders at a time with each opposing pair sharing a crank case?
