X-75 Hurricane saved

The National Motorcycle Museum has secured the original BSA works prototype X-75 Hurricane after an auction by H&H Classics. The X-75, often seen as the first factory ‘cruiser’ model, used the same 750 triple engine as the later Triumph Rocket and was crafted by American designer Craig Vetter. Just two are thought to exist, and this original factory model will now be exhibited at the Birmingham Museum after being acquired for £27,000.
