Rallies, Racing and Historical Notes on Australian Motorcycle History

Denis Quinlan of KTT Services

Well known to practically everyone from Australia involved in the classic scene, Denis has assembled a prodigious archive of motorcycling history related to Velocette, Vincent and motorcycle instruments.

His site includes book reviews, rare racing models, restoration notes, in memorium and quite a bit on the lighter side too.

One not to be missed!
