1925 Sunbeam Long-stroke Sport start-up & run

In this video we see the 1925 Sunbeam Long-stroke (492cc single cylinder engine with TT race carburettor) start-up and run. Rider in shot is our friend Rich Orriss. Facebook and Instagram: @thegirderclub Rich says: “These motorcycles were known as the “Speedman’s Machine” back in the day, and rightly so, they were quick and nimble and won many competitions including the Isle of Man TT. The Long-stroke, some would argue, is the epitome of Sunbeam and represents the firm’s quest for high quality and reliable craftsmanship, and fast, thrilling machines… anyway who said vintage motorcycles weren’t complicated!?“ Video was shot by Rich and edited by Alex Rollings.
