MR K,s lambretta finished
That`s stunning. Really clean and tidy. Love it. What`s the story with the rear hub that`s hung on the wall?

Just to add to Stuart's rear hub complete with 'lightening hole'.
I had exactly the same East Kirkby NSA 1/4 mile Sprint about 4 years ago.
Got back to the paddock, having just done a 96mph terminal speed, and wondered why the back wheel seemed to be moving about as I was riding back down the return road.
Whole centre boss had sheared apart from a section that was about 1'' (25mm long).
Kicked the back wheel and the whole lot just collapsed.... nice.
Hub was only 3 months old.
Needless to say it made me think ....
Why did it happen? - well on a road bike it probably wouldn't have.
However, when you go off the line in a sprint or drag meeting the power will always go the weakest link - normally the transmission at the moment- but on this day, like Stuart's, it was the rear hub's turn
Now I only use Series 2 or Spanish Hubs - more robust centre bosses.... dead easy to get hold of, of course!
