* BSA TT RACER: The BSA 1921 TT team was the least lucky outfit you could ever hope to hear of. Their fast but fragile ohv single caused all sorts of chaos, and the last surviving bike still gets into trouble on a regular basis
* BSA A10 REBUILD: It's nearly finished! Jon puts it all back together and then has to figure out why it don't wanna go...
* GREEVES 32DC: A two-stroke roadster heads for the Isle of Man. Will it survive the Manx GP?
* HONDA CBX1000: You've got to have grit if you're going to restore a six cylinder classic. David Towers' CBX has been through two (or is it three?) rebuilds, a rebore, and an awful lot of cash...
* JAP SPECIAL: What do you get if you stick a 1000cc JAP engine into a Norton featherbed frame? Frank Westworth isn't entirely sure!
* NORTON COMMANDO 750S: A big yellow beast from 1970, the S-type Commando is the one with the awesome high pipes which fetches a pretty penny when they come up for sale. But the S-type was never as popular as the Roadster when new. Wonder why?
* TRIUMPH TRW: This wartime slogger was obsolete before it even went into production, but Jim Rendell has a soft spot for his rigid sidevalve

PLUS: Steve Wilson goes Down The Road to the Manx Grand Prix and the VMCC's Manx Rally; British Bike Bodging (some helpful hints and tips); How To make big end bearings with Humbernut; PUB on changing ratios; Dave Minton reviews the VMCC's festival of 1000 Bikes, and Frank Westworth narrowly avoids setting fire to The Big Shed...
