EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the year 1922, where innovation and pioneering spirit were at their peak in the world of motorcycles. The image showcases a remarkable machine known as the 1922 Sun Vitesse - a true testament to disc-valve pioneers. What makes this particular model so extraordinary is its induction control method, which pre-dated both German and Japanese advancements by an astonishing three decades. While these methods would later become commonplace in the industry, it was the Sun Vitesse that first introduced them to the racing scene. Although two of these magnificent machines finished behind the winners in their respective races, their significance cannot be understated. They paved the way for future developments and set new standards for performance and engineering excellence. The photograph itself captures every intricate detail of this lightweight TT racer with precision. From its sleek frame to its powerful engine, one can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through its veins just by looking at it. This print serves as a timeless reminder of how far motorcycle technology has come since those early days. It pays homage to those daring individuals who dared to push boundaries and challenge conventions. So let us celebrate this piece of history preserved on paper – a symbol of courage, ingenuity, and unwavering determination within the realm of two-wheeled speed machines.
