Oh baby... to cruise northern California on that S-7.

I go the the museum at Buddy Stubbs regularly and it's the Sunbeam among a couple-three that really get me.

Too - he has a Nimbus and a Henderson 4!

Wow, I love that Sunbeam!  Beautiful bike, and what a clean design.  Love the pipes.  Looks like an inline twin?

If you make it down to "The Valley" and have time to dawdle, Buddy Stubbs Harley has a hell of a free museum inside. It's open everyday now for unaccompanied visits. You'll see damn near everything non-Japanese, from the glory days in there.

He's on Cave Creek road, North Phoenix.

+ 1 for the Buddy Stubbs museum. It's a little light on Italian machinery, though there's a nice Ducati 500 GTL. The Ariel square 4 was my favorite.
Another cool museum is the Triumph museum in apache junction. I believe the triumph museum is by appointment only.

There, I fixed it for you  :evil:

Beautiful bike!

Looking at the pictures of the brakes reminds me of a comment that Jay Leno made when profiling when of his old bikes, something British from the 30's or 40's, I forget, maybe a Velocette.     Anyway, his comment was, "You've all heard of anti-lock brakes, well, this bike has anti-STOP brakes.     They doesn't so much stop, so much as suggest slowing."

With O.H.C

Guy in my old home town had an S7 and an S8 that he used to cruise around on.

If you love Sunbeams, interesting people and motorcycling cats look up Max Corkill and Rastus the cat. Raised money for charities. Sadly Max, his fiancée Gaynor Martin, Rastus and the Sunbeam were taken out by a driver on the wrong side of the road back in around 1998.
