Thanks Jess, got second place last year with my A model. To get a result in such a big show is a significant achievement, if I could get a result again but with the M, I'll be blown away.
You can see a photo of my bikes and read a comment from me on owning and riding an RE5 in Feb's CMM.
Hope you make the show Sam.

Just read the RE5 article in Feb's CMM, superb bikes you have there Lee - they are a real credit to you.
Suggest that any RE5 owner or enthusiast buy a copy of the mag as the article is extremely interesting, with plenty of pictures of the bike. On page 93 there is an article on Rotary Recycles spark plug adapter. Just received mine from the states and a very fine piece of engineering it is to!
Weather permitting I will make every effort to attend the Bristol show to see the RE5 `in the flesh`.

Thanks for the compliments on the plug adaptor...
The fellow who did the cad work and got them made did a hell of a job.
Can someone post me a copy of the mag? I will pay for it or give a credit on the next order... their choice Thanks!
Jess

An interesting review of the RE5 in both articles, not much I personally didn't already know but a good source of information for the newer owners among us and those considering ownership.
Most photos are 70s library photos from CMM with the exception of the photo of my bikes, myself and my show engine.
The piece about the racing RE5 was interesting but I thought it went on a bit too much and a comment by another owner I found to be misleading and inaccurate which I feel didn't help promote the RE5 at all.
Overall a decent reference to the RE5 that should clear some myths about the bike.
Jess. PM me your address and I'll send you a copy.
