Speedy Swedish LE

-

I have just read the article about the world’s fastest Velocette LE bike. Don’t forget that a Velocette LE bike was used for TT racing in Sweden for the 1950 season. The Swedish Velocette importer, Olof Ström, tuned an LE bike for his son Jerker to race. The bike was used during 1950. Unfortunat­ely, nothing is written regarding top speed! The next year a Velocette MAC was down-stroked to 175cc to be used instead.
