I forget if the Sunbeam motorcycle is in any way related to our cars. But,
there is a 1956 "Sunbeam" English Shaft-Drive Motorcycle listed for sale on
ebay. The picture is at:

Even if it is not connected, it sure is an intense looking motorcycle. If
I did not know that I would kill myself on a motorcycle, knowing how fast I
ride my bicycles and drive my cars, I'd be looking for just such another
Sunbeam to add to my garage.
Also, I thought Tom wrote a pure gem:

Have you seen a Porsche Boxster car show lately? "Oh, dear, look here is a
red one, and here is a black one, oh, and here is another red one. I think
this one has slightly less air in the tires than the last one." It simply
looks like you are at the dealer's lot. BORING.
