yep dave mac is coventry and probably the worlds leading authority on Rudge motorcycles, and his son is a very decent vintage racer too!! Dave has a very warped sense of humour too; totally barking-top guy!!!

Re half jag shafts Adrian Cocking once told me that the shortened ones he used to buy were 40% stronger than std jag ones, due to the inner tube that was welded in during the cut and shorten / re weld process.
Im sure the factory racing TWR XJS's were putting out in excess of 600 rwhp at the end through an IRS but not sure how std it was inside.
