    I could listen to Sammy Miller all day long. His depth and breadth of motorcycling knowledge is amazing.

    Thanks for sharing your passion sir. I visited the museum in 1997 on a trip from the USA. At the time there was a Bonneville and a Commando back home that I cherished. The museum was astounding to me and I took many rolls of film of photos. The vast collection demonstrates the myriad possibilities and creativity of motorcycle enthusiasts. Thanks again for preserving this collection that is a testament to human potential.

    Really entertaining and informative video! Took me a while to realize that Sammy was talking about himself in the third person. That guy knows everything about every bike and rider in that collection. Would love to visit his museum one day.

    Thank you so much Mr. Miller for your tour & fabulous descriptions of these historic machines. And thank you for your incredible contributions to motorcycling and the preservation of its history. I've been lucky enough to see you twice at Pukekohe once on the V4 AJS (perhaps my all time favourite machine) & then the Guzzi V8. Now I really do need to get to that museum of yours.

    Incredible collection, I can't believe how rare some of those bikes are, i.e Moto Guzzi 8cyl 500 for one. If Jay Leno knows of this museum he will die of envy. Where is it located? I definitely must visit. And such a lovely guy! I could listen all day.

    My son raced a 1992 Honda rs 125 beautiful bike...it's amazing to see racers in original condition...Eric Fernihough was a very very brave man indeed , killed at age 33. I've read about a lot of these bikes from buying Classic Motorcycle Magazine in the early 80s with Bob Currie as editor......I spied a Wooler at the start of the video, was it restored using only one spanner?

    A fascinating and riveting presentation, by SM the legend.
    What a tragedy that Britain made and successfully raced a v4 four stroke long before it was copied by the 'rising sun'.
    Similarly, they also stole/helped themselves to MZ's (Walter Cardin's - V2) expansion chamber design...

    More "what might have been". It makes me angry that all these developements, years before anyone else, essentially came to nothing. BSA and the MC1 is a good example of how certain individuals swung the hammer that put the nails in the coffin of the British bike indistry.

    I specially love the tales of the bsa, that was not raced, because the could not guarantee the victory, then it should not race.
    No wonder why they closed, typical English conservative thinking. 😢
