I read somewhere that the lead used in the old Monotype hot metal printing machines makes good lad for casting bullets.
Most of those machines are long gone...replaced by electronics.
I recall looking for a house in the SF bay area one Saturday morning a while back....and a guy had one in his garage.
Brough Superior motorcycles: the price of excellence No wonder they’ve been dubbed the "Rolls-Royce of motorcycles.” Brough Superior has been continually raising the bar for sophistication, luxury and an unparalleled riding experience since its inception!
As early as the 1920s, the SS100 broke records for the world’s fastest motorcycle at 191.59 km/h (approx. 119 mph), which a century ago was extraordinary.
At the time, Brough Superior motorcycles were renowned for their excellent custom details and performance.
The brand has continued to uphold its standards and its prestige;
to this day, each Brough Superior receives full-on custom treatment from fender to fender to meet the needs and desires of its future rider. The high-end price is proof, if any were needed, that this is, indeed, an elite luxury machine.
Brough Superior’s workshops produce limited numbers of meticulously handcrafted models - just over 3,000 machines have been produced in 20 years - making each model even more iconic.
