A collection of images from our vast archive depicting motorcycles and motorcycling lifestyle from the early 1900's through to the present day.
Sheenebookazine54 Sheene and Kenny Roberts are two of motorcycling's all-time greats but who was the best of the best? They first raced against each other at Daytona in 1974 and over the next decade they met more than 100 times and on four continents. Although Roberts beat Sheene in most of those encounters Merv Wright, who managed the Suzuki race effort in America and Europe, reckons Sheene was often on inferior machinery.

MORTONS ARCHIVE > Nick Nicholls collection (1 file)

The Nick Nicholls collection is recognised as one of the finest collections of motorcycle-sport images from the second half of the 20th century.
John Cooper NNC 010 Mallory Parks favourite son John Mooneyes Cooper in typical pose as he rounds Gerards Bend during the 1971 Easter Sunday meeting ahead of Lincolnshire ace Steve Machin (Padgett Yamaha) and Jim Curry on the 350 Honda twin. An unlikely looking hero, with his studious John Lennon glasses, on this occasion Cooper heads the field on his 350 Yamsel, the product of joining one of Colin Seeleys fine handling chassis with the, by then, dominant Yamaha engines. For a decade or more Cooper was the man to beat at Mallory Park, whether Manx Norton, BSA Rocket 3 or Yamsel mounted.
